The highlight of the day was the Build a BBQ demonstration, where Kevin showed attendees how to craft an outdoor BBQ using Pavestone Moodul Walling.

Although it was one of the hottest days we’ve seen, the live project showed how easy it can be to create your own BBQ from building materials, inspiring many to plan their next garden upgrade.

We were joined by top suppliers including: Pavestone, Azpects, OX Tools, TuffStuff, and Fernco. A fantastic opportunity for local tradespeople to network, explore the latest products, and discuss projects.
