Craig Castree, author of Edible Gardens: A Practical Guide, to visit Wyndham for book reading

If you’re looking to transform your garden into a beautiful and organic space, growing fruit and vegetables for the whole family—head to Manor Lakes Library next month to hear from one of the best in the business.

Craig Castree will be visiting the Library on Saturday, 15 February for an Author Talk, discussing his book Edible Gardens: A Practical Guide from 10.30am.

Wyndham City Environment and Sustainability Portfolio Holder Cr Heather Marcus said the session was guaranteed to be interesting and educational.

“We know Craig Castree from the TV program Vasili’s Garden to Kitchen, where he teaches viewers how to graft and care for fruit trees,” Cr Marcus said.

“He’s now released his first book, sharing his views on why those with a green thumb should steer away from traditional vegetable gardens, and consider his approach for a more productive and healthier garden.”

Mr Castree will share tips on fruit and herbs, how to care for gardens in an organic way, and growing vegetables.

Bookings for this free event are essential.

Support Independent Community Journalism

Dear Reader,

The Indian Sun exists for one reason: to tell stories that might otherwise go unheard.
We report on local councils, state politics, small businesses and cultural festivals. We focus on the Indian diaspora and the wider multicultural community with care, balance and accountability. We publish in print and online, send regular newsletters and produce video content. We also run media training programs to help community organisations share their own stories.

We operate independently.

Community journalism does not have the backing of large media corporations. Advertising revenue fluctuates. Platform algorithms change. Costs continue to rise. Yet the need for credible, grounded reporting in a multicultural Australia has never been greater.

When you support The Indian Sun, you support:

• Independent reporting on issues affecting migrant communities
• Coverage of local and state decisions that shape daily life
• A platform for small businesses and community groups
• Media training that builds skills within the community
• Journalism accountable to readers

We cannot cover everything, but we work to cover what matters.

If you value thoughtful reporting that reflects Australia’s diversity, we invite you to contribute. Every donation helps us maintain the quality and consistency of our work.

Please consider making a contribution today.

Thank you for your support.

The Indian Sun Team
