Swane's - Retail Nursery - Return to Index Page

This is an older, established nursery north of Sydney.  It too had a cafe serving lunch and snacks.  I have even included photos of the soup and salad I ate for lunch.  The nursery had a parking lot big enough for about 75 cars and typically has large crowds on the weekends.
