Come along from 2pm -4pm to the Friends of the Gardens Special Guided walk…

To celebrate Threatened Species Day, the Friends of the Gardens will be holding a Threatened Species Guided Walk 7th September 2pm - 4.00pm followed an afternoon tea.

Each one of Queensland's native plants is a special part of our biodiversity. Some plants (and animal) species are disappearing from the wild and are at risk of extinction. What are they? Why are they? What are the botanic gardens doing to help our threatened species?

Come along on a guided walk on September 7 at 2pm and learn about our bioregion's threatened species, as well as other threatened plants from Queensland. And best of all, learn what you can do to help.

The walk will be followed by an afternoon tea. We ask participants to bring along a plate of 'yummy taste treats' to share.  Soft drink, tea and coffee will be provided.
RSVP ESSENTIAL by Wednesday, September 4th to Gardens Administration on 4952 7300 or email botanic@mackay.qld.gov.au.

The special guided walk was originally at 10am, but we have changed the time so people have the opportunity to do their voting and / or visit Sarina Community Native Gardens and meet Costa Georgiadis (host of ABC's Gardening Australia) from 10am - 1pm.
