Weed and Feed Guided Walk


Weeding and Feeding at the Botanic Gardens Saturday 21st March  2015 >3:00pm -  7:00pm

Learn some Weed identification, pull out some 'weeds' that are cluttering up the Gardens and then join in with some 'feeding' at our friendly BBQ.

Weeding:

Dale hated them in our Botanic Gardens! Weeds that is...
 
Garden Friends will learn some Weed Identification and help pull out any weeds found during the walk through the Regional FloraTerraces and Torres Strait Islanders areas of the Botanic Gardens. I wonder how many weeds we will collect?  You might like to bring your favourite gloves or borrow some of ours.
Maya will also talk about the signage in the Torres Strait Islands Gardens.
Park at the Tamarind car-park and meet at the Torres Strait Islands shelter to start at 3.00pm

Feeding:

After all that hard work, some feeding of the masses will be on the agenda. We will host a BBQ at the Tamarind shelter (this shelter has lights) near the children's 'Under the Banyan PlayGarden' (with it colourful mosaics). BBQ meat, bread rolls and light drinks will be provided. We ask that Friends please bring along a salad or sweets to share.
