Located on the beautiful Mornington Peninsula
Heronswood is the idyllic location to escape the crowds and relax. Explore the gardens and gallery, and get advice from our team on how to create a beautiful and productive garden as you shop in our nursery.
The Gardens

Heronswood Garden & cafe is free for Diggers members and children under 16. Entry to the garden & cafe is $15 for visitors. There is no entry charge to visit the garden shop and nursery.
