Dear Home Building Enthusiast,

The 2018 Adbri Masonry Great Australian Backyard Survey results were released recently, which found that more than 75% of those surveyed had confirmed plans to improve or undertake a new project in their backyard.

With so many Australians committed to investing in their backyards and the Garden Releaf program taking place this Saturday, this edition is all about our outdoor spaces.

The Garden Releaf program aims to encourage people to get out in their garden and will be taking place at independent garden centres around Australia on Saturday 14 April.

In the lead up we’ve got a bunch of articles to help inspire you, including how to transform your garden into a spring oasis and make the most of a small space. We also take a look at the results from the Adbri Masonry Great Australian Backyard Survey, which showed travel experiences are increasingly influencing garden design trends.

Enjoy!
