The Diggers Club is a certified social enterprise, with all the profits flowing to the Diggers Foundation, a registered Charity approved by Australian Charities and Non for Profits Commission.

The Garden of St Erth in Blackwood is a historic garden nestled in the Wombat State Forest, offering a peaceful escape with stunning seasonal blooms and heritage fruit orchards. Operated by The Diggers Club, it features beautifully curated edible and ornamental gardens alongside a charming café and nursery. This hidden gem is perfect for garden lovers, history enthusiasts, and anyone seeking inspiration in nature.

Beyond the garden, the Blackwood area has several outdoor adventures. Lerderderg State Park is just a short drive away, offering rugged hiking trails, scenic picnic spots, and opportunities to explore the dramatic Lerderderg Gorge. For something gentler, Miner’s Track and Garden of St Erth’s walking trails connect visitors to nature without the need for serious bushwalking experience. In town, Blackwood Mineral Springs Reserve is a lovely place to relax under tall trees, enjoy a picnic, and try the local mineral water from the pump – a quirky nod to the area's natural history. History lovers can explore the remnants of Blackwood’s gold mining past, with old diggings and relics scattered throughout the surrounding forest. The local Blackwood Hotel, a historic country pub, is a great spot to grab a meal or a drink, often featuring live music and a friendly atmosphere. There are also seasonal markets and community events throughout the year, adding a touch of rural charm and local colour
