The Jindivick Cricket Ground has the best view ever. Watch a cricket game if it’s on or just have a bbq and wander through the community garden looking at the plants, sculptures and trying out the fitness equipment.

Try a meal at the Jindi Caf. The Caf is run by Sue and has the best Burgers and roasts for miles around  www.facebook.com/TheJindiCaf

Browse the plants and garden-wares at the Jindivick Country Gardener. David has accumulated a wonderful variety of rare and unusual plants and garden decorations.David has moved the business to his home at Broughton Hall in July.https://muskersbroughtonhall.com.au/https://muskersbroughtonhall.com.au/

Down the Main Jindivick Rd about a couple of Km’s is Laurie Collins’ Sculpture Garden where you can wander through the acre of sculpture and gardens.
