Everyone’s favourite garden gnome, Costa Georgiadis (Gardening Australia & GA Junior, Get Grubby TV) and permaculture illustrator Brenna Quinlan have created a new illustrated adventure called Costa’s Garden: Flowers (out Dec 5 through ABC/HarperCollins) for young green-thumbs everywhere all about the bloomin’ magical magnificence of our floral friends.

This summer, Formidable Vegetable will be hitting the road with them and GRAMMY-winning family-funk MC, Secret Agent 23 Skidoo in an Electric Mayhem-style muppet-esque tour of the east coast, making their way from Yarra Valley ECOSS in Vic up to Woodford Folk Festival and all the way back down via Brisbane, Mullimbimby, Bellingen, Central Coast and the Sydney Royal Botanic Gardens to Cygnet Folk Festival in Tasmania.
