🌿If you’ve ever stepped into the enchantingly charming Garden Goodness in Port Adelaide, you’ll instantly understand its unique allure. This quaint store is more than just a place to buy plants; it’s a vibrant hub where local garden enthusiasts come together to share their passion and inspiration. The store stands out for its rare indigenous edible plants (bush tucker) and regenerative gardening products, which are truly one-of-a-kind!
But, alas, there’s some heartbreaking news: this beloved little shop is being forced to close its doors soon!
🧑🌾The 27-year-old owner, Peter, announced with tears in his eyes that the branch, which has only been open for 18 months, will officially shut down on April 28th. It seems that the main tenant, People’s Market, has given them an eviction notice without any room for negotiation 😢
Peter shared, “We were just beginning to hit our stride, aiming to create a lively community space for gardening, but we were suddenly told to leave.”
🛒On a brighter note, there’s a fantastic clearance sale before the closure! Plant lovers can take advantage of these amazing deals:
✅ Rare edible plant seedlings
✅ Fruit trees and vegetable seedlings
✅ Organic compost and potting mix
✅ Sustainable gardening tools and accessories
📍Address: Garden Goodness – Port Adelaide 🕒 Last business day: April 28th
🌱While the Port Adelaide store is bidding farewell, their Smithfield location will continue to thrive! In the future, they plan to launch an online store, offering delivery throughout Adelaide. Peter also expressed his hope that, if the opportunity arises, he would love to return to Port Adelaide and reopen the store, bringing back the magic to the community.
I’m so sad to hear this store is closing—it’s such a special place! I hope all those amazing indigenous plants find new homes with people who appreciate them as much as the owner clearly does. It’s really touching to see someone pour their heart into something like this. I wish them all the best in whatever comes next!
I had no idea this place was closing—it’s such a shame! The selection of indigenous plants alone makes it worth visiting, and I can only imagine how special it must feel to be part of that community. I hope people rush to support the sale before it’s gone for good.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts! It’s true, this store has been a hidden gem in the community, and its closing is definitely a loss. Supporting their clearance sale is a great way to pay tribute to all the joy they’ve brought over the years. Let’s hope the local plant lovers come together to make the most of it!
This closing sale feels like losing a piece of the community. I hope these unique plants find loving homes with gardeners who appreciate them. It’s such a shame to see this place go, it had something special.
