Bulleen Art and Garden
Episode: # Waterwise Special 24th November 2007
Presenter: Neville Passmore
Garden watering solutions are as individual as the gardener and their garden, but it is definitely not a case of one size fits all. This is the principle behind Victoria’s Bulleen Art and Garden centre which The Gurus rate as true leaders in watering technology in Australia, when it come to tailoring this to the needs of your garden.
They have sourced an impressive range of garden water products which includes tanks of every shape, type and size you could imagine. There is also a clear emphasis on how to distribute water effectively into the garden.
Distribution is where the water really hits the dirt. Experience at Bulleen has shown that expert advice can enable you to halve the cost of setting up your collection and distribution system. The essential difference is that Bulleen Art and Garden or BAAG as they are affectionately known as, have the perspective of a practical gardener. They can talk to you about the suitability of the plants that you already have, how much water you can collect, what you want to use it for, how much is needed and how to get it there, all in a way that is sustainable, cost effective and efficient.
The nursery caters for an enormous range of garden uses so if your wish is to grow your own food or look good for the neighbours, hide an ugly view then these folks have the plants and the knowhow. Bulleen also have regular garden classes on a range of sustainable gardening topics including water use, to help you become a better gardener.
Then there is the Carbon Footprint display which aims to bring home the message that our lifestyle can come at a cost to the environment. There is a large footprint left by a consumption driven life or the smaller print left by an environmentally aware waterwise gardener.
BAAG have an unusual philosophy. The aim is to find the most sustainable long term solution for the customers and if this means sacrifice sales by saving the customer from buying products that they do not need or that will lead to a better environmental outcome they are more than happy.
BAAG have won a number of national awards for community and environmental initiatives and are major sponsors of sustainable gardening Australia. This demonstrates a practical way on their commitment to the environment that we too can pass on to our children.
