We are a small team but work hard, and are grateful of the support we receive from our neighboring clubs. There are some multi talented members in our group which helps, and some new members are showing their work this year.

3 sleeps to go

I am honored to be invited to hold a stall the Goulburn Bonsai Society Exhibition. I am thrilled that the exhibition is happening this year as last year is something I think we all rather forget about. Here is a sneak peek of a few pots that I will be taking with me.
I will only be there on the Saturday, and I am looking forward to seeing the familiar faces, new faces and chatting about all things bonsai and pots.
Cheers
Ben

Of course the best way to find out is come and have a look
While you are there getting a pot you might also find a tree to suit it?????
AND see the exhibition.

Thanks for the suggestion to visit Gehl Garden Centre as well, Watto. They have some great material there, great plants, Searles stuff and little items for decoration.

If you are anywhere remotely close to Goulburn, do yourself a favour and go check out the exhibition. The exhibition final day is today (Sunday) and closes 4pm.
I would like to congratulate the Goulburn Bonsai Society on the high standard display the small group has put on. It is not just great trees, there is a lot of overall attention to detail. Every tree is displayed on a stand and accompanied by accent plants with a background screen.
There are also a couple of stunning ikebana.
Unfortunately I won't be there with my pots today but there will be hand made pots by Viv
Cheers
Ben

Gosh we had a great weekend

Thanks to all the wonderful people who travelled to Goulburn and shared appreciation and chatter, even a story or two, and have supported us so well. Great also to have the company of Potter Ben as our guest along with his really nice pots.
We will be on the road next weekend to check out Canberra Bonsai trees and more chatter and more enthusiasm. Looking forward to it.

Great time of the year!
Viv
