Friends of the Gardens Guided Walk: ‘Then and Now: We are 10 years old’

Saturday March 9th from 4.00pm... Come with the Friends of the Gardens as they join Dale Arvidsson (Curator of the Mackay Regional Botanic Gardens) as he leads a Guided Walk, highlighting special areas of the Botanic Gardens and the significant growth and changes that have occurred during the Gardens 10year life span.

Rain may postpone this event. Call 49527300 or 0400 069 904 for updates.

Meet at the front entrance of the Cafe on the Lagoon at 4.00pm, where displays of ‘Then and Now’ Botanic Gardens’ photographs will be on display. See how we have grown from lots of mulch and small tube stock plants to the green oasis we all now enjoy.

The Friends of the Gardens will join in a BBQ after the walk around 5.30 - 6.00pm. Everyone is welcome but an RSVP is essential by Wednesday March 6th. Participants are asked to bring along either a salad or sweets to share.
