Thommo's Community Garden - Spring in the Garden
Aqwest enjoyed a great day out in the community at Thommo’s Community Garden’s Spring in the Garden event on 24 October, sharing practical ways to save water in the home and garden.
Visitors to the Aqwest stall could chat with the team about water efficiency and learn more about our current water efficiency offers, including the Irrigation Service Rebate and Weather-Based Irrigation Controller Rebate.
Jarrad from Verve Landscapes also joined us during the event, providing practical advice on sprinklers, reticulation settings and waterwise gardening.
There was plenty for families to get involved in too, with children planting native seedlings in biodegradable cups to take home. Visitors could also pick up free water-saving resources including reticulation catch cups, watering roster magnets and shower timers.

A giveaway that keeps on giving
As part of the day, Aqwest customers had the chance to enter our free giveaway to win a trailer load of pine bark mulch, supplied and delivered by Verve Landscapes.
The lucky winner, Tessa Stewart, then generously chose to donate the trailer load of mulch to Milligan House Child Care Centre.
Jarrad from Verve Landscapes recently delivered the mulch to the centre, where it will be put to good use, helping to retain soil moisture and reduce water loss.
It was a wonderful outcome from a great community event and another simple example of how water efficient gardening practices can make a difference.
Thank you to everyone who stopped by our stall at Spring in the Garden, and to Thommo’s Community Garden and Verve Landscapes for helping make the day a success.
