Mark Sarah is the son of Doug and Brenda
Sarah who opened Cockington Green
Gardens in 1979, turning dusty paddocks in
Canberra's north to a whimsical village of
meticulous miniature buildings.

Mr Sarah was just 17 on the opening
day and has remained there ever since,
developing it into a Canberra tourism icon.
His award was recognition also of the many
behind-the-scenes efforts he makes for the
local industry.

"It was a big shock.
"I didn't expect that accolade to come my
way really," he said.
"I've been in the industry 42 years now
and I've only known one job and it com-
pletely blew me away to get that.
"And the kind words from many people
after as well has been really wonderful."
The Handmade Canberra Market won the
Innovation and Resilience Award, getting
through COVID by going online and then
seeing customers return in droves to the
face-to-face events.
Market owner Julie Nichols said the award
had been a "great confidence booster" for
her whole team.
"Being in business, especially over the last
few years, has been hard work, dedication
and sacrifice," she said.
"Going through the awards submission
process is really beneficial and is a great
reminder of everything we have achieved
this year."
