The Cannington Horticultural Society is delighted to announce a special commemoration of our club's 50th Anniversary: the creation and installation of a beautiful, original handmade bench by Mark Puigmarti of 'Sparks Will Fly Forge'. Mark has designed and crafted a truly one-of-a-kind bench that reflects our horticultural roots, incorporating the club's floral emblem, Bleeding Hearts.
