Anne and Ron a quick thank.

Anne and Ron a quick thank you for providing Somerfield Garden members with such a wonderful visit to your amazing garden (the tulip tree was a very special topic of interest and discussion) and also for the lovely home prepared lunch.  You are getting a well deserved reputation for the quality of your delightful food and I have to confess that personally I ate far too much as I could not resist a second visit to the table.

Your amazing property.

I just wanted to thank you for allowing my twin sister and me to visit your amazing property last week. What an absolute inspiration and delight you are Judy. You’ve kept that dream alive after your dear husband passed and I think it’s keeping you going!! We so enjoyed the experience, swapping our funny gardening stories and seeing your beautiful garden. The photos don’t do it justice but I created a post on my own page, The Uralla Garden. Hope you don’t mind. I used some of the photos from your website but captioned them as such.

Hope you are well and once again thank you Judy

I recently officiated a wedding at HUs at it was absolutely gorgeous! It was a beautiful day, the grounds were stunning, the venue flows seamlessly - indoor and out and the ceremony down on the water was very special. Countless photo opportunities and a very relaxed, lush and spacious setting for such a special occasion.
