24.01.2022 GENEROUS GARDENERS FLY THE FLAG FOR GOYDER. What an unforgettable event, and who made it so? Our group may have done the organising, but most of the credit must go to the gardeners. These wonderful gregarious people have worked for months to produce not one or two gardens, but a delight for the senses across the region with 15 gardens open. They are the unsung heroes and exceptional ambassadors for our region showcasing our sense of community, ability to work to...gether and welcoming visitors to enjoy the warm country lifestyle. Not only do they work hard during the lead up, they give their whole weekend freely to visitors, sharing knowledge, gardening tales, plants and country morning teas. Record numbers of visitors came to spend time in the gardens with the whole region benefitting. Large numbers of tourists mean a boost for local businesses and they in turn help keep our local economy thriving. THANK YOU GARDENERS AND THEIR HELPERS SEE YOU NEXT YEAR See more

23.01.2022 VIVALDI IN THE VINES MARCH 28 DON'T MISS THIS FUNDRAISER FOR ST MARY'S ANGLICAN CHURCH BURRA https://valleyproductions.com.au/index.php/upcoming-events NEW DATES - Adelaide | Sevenhill | Burra Early bird prices until February 28.... The Easter Concert will feature The Adelaide Baroque Orchestra playing on original instruments and one of Australia’s leading young singers, the Counter Tenor Max Riebl. Easter usually means many performances of Handels Messiah or one of the Bach passions. However these concerts offer a very special magnificent performance of a Haydn masterpiece and a Vivaldi rarity. Haydn’s The Seven Last Words of Christ was commissioned in 1786 for the Good Friday service at the Oratorio de la Santa Cueva in Cadiz, Spain. As a work specifically designed for a specific time it is rarely heard. However such was its popularity at the time that Haydn prepared 3 versions, the original full orchestral version, a choral version and a chamber version for sting quartet. For this rare performance we are pleased to present members of the Adelaide Baroque Orchestra in the latter version. To compliment and continue the story of the crucifixion the Haydn will be followed by Vivaldi’s sublime setting of the Stabat Mater with Counter Tenor, Max Riebl as soloist. The Stabat Mater is one of the most famous medieval religious poems depicting the anguish of Mary at the foot of the cross. Set by numerous composers over the centuries, the Vivaldi ranks as his only setting of the text and one of the most beautiful. Ticket prices Early Bird until Feb 28th $40 - Adult and concession From March 1st $50 - Adult $45 - Concession
