WELCOME TO A NEW YEAR OF GARDENING

Welcome to Gardening Australia for 2011!

It's been a very difficult summer - with floods, fires and cyclones affecting many of our viewers. The GA Team would like to wish all those affected, a safe and speedy recovery from these extreme events.

Obviously, there have been a lot of gardens devasted over the last couple of months, and I'm sure all gardeners appreciate the heartache that this can bring.

For some, new opportunities may be born and new gardens created. For others, it can be hard to know where to start. We hope that we can help all gardeners by providing useful and practical ideas - no matter whether you're starting a new garden, making changes to your garden, or just want to pick up tips from the presenters to make things easier.

It's been a challenging start for many, but let's hope that 2011 turns out to be a good year - giving you lots of time to enjoy the passion we all share - gardening!

Regards,


Stephen

SATURDAY 6:30PM ABC1

As we move forward into the digital age, more and more people are watching the show in different ways. This means that Gardening Australia will now only be screened on Saturdays at the usual time of 6:30pm ABC1. If you normally watched the repeat of the show on Sundays, don't despair - there are many other ways you can see the show.

The ABC offers iView which allows you to catch-up on shows you may have missed and watch them at a time that suits you. You can also watch select stories from the show 'streamed' from your computer. And of course, you'll still be able to download the entire show onto your computer or portable device and even take the program with you - great for the train commute to work or even to watch the show out in your own garden! It means that the show is there to watch at a time that suits you best.

If you need any help with streaming, downloading or watching the show on iView, please follow the links below and you'll be on your way to watching Gardening Australia where and when you want!
