Australia's Open Garden Scheme
Australia's Open Garden Scheme is a non-profit organisation. Its mission is to promote the knowledge and pleasure of gardens and gardening across Australia. It does this by opening Australia's most inspiring private gardens to the public. Gardens are open to the public on specified days for a nominal fee. Part of the entry fee is returned to the garden owner or the charity of their choice. Any surplus to AOGS is returned to the community in the form of grants for garden and horticulture related projects.

A Garden Path is proud to have been accepted as part of the Australia's Open Garden Scheme.

A Garden Path will be open in winter and spring to demonstrate both winter and summer herb, vegetable and fruit gardens.

A Garden Path is located on Shambhala Place, a Certified Organic property by NASAA.
