The Central Coast Bonsai Club has received $4,100 through the Federal Government’s 2021-22 Volunteer Grants program for essential equipment.
Member for Robertson, Gordon Reid, met with representative Denise Allen to learn more about the bonsai club.
“It was very insightful visiting Denise at her property and seeing the magnificent bonsais that she has cultivated over the many years,” Reid said.
“Bonsais truly represent perseverance and commitment as they are very difficult to grow.
“The funding provided to the Central Coast Bonsai Club will ensure they can continue cultivating amazing bonsais and facilitate more members into the club.
Allen, says the funding will allow the club to buy much-needed items to ensure its continual growth.
“The club will buy a printer, scanner, trollies, and shelving for extra storage capacity,” she said.
The Central Coast Bonsai Club is open to new members and meets every month at Mingara Recreation Club.
The club hosts regular classes on how to grow and care for bonsais.
