Albury / Wodonga Bonsai Display

Post by alpineart »

This weekend we used the local Albury show to showcase and promote Bonsai locally in a family friendly environment . I'm still amazed at the mis-conclusion that Bonsai is only for the elete or professional , after clarifying to many inquiries that anybody to create Bonsai some are just a little better than others as with all form of art .

We certainly created an interest with many taking printed info , others purchasing trainer/starter material and a few order also taken . No doubt we will hear from a few as new members keen and eager to take up my favorite hobby , {apart from my Wife} :lol: :lol: :lol: .

With such good input , participation and assistance from Neil and Theo we had a great 2 day event . Look forward to the Horticultural Show here in Myrtleford set down for Next month due to the rain effected grounds .

Well done once again guys .

Cheers . Ian

Thanks for posting this Ian.

Was great to spend the weekend with you while we chatted to all and sundry and worked on a few trees while we were at it!

Hopefully we sparked an interest for a few people or if nothing else dispelled some myths!
