Whoo Whoo is coming to the Regional Forest?

1.00pm > Sunday 29th May > as part of the Botanic Gardens Open Day

Join Grant Paterson (President of SGAP Mackay) at the Australian South Seas Islander Hut and then take a walk through the oldest section of the Botanic Gardens... the Regional Forests. The cool gallery style rainforest is full of secrets and surprises like the Boobook Owl in the image. Grant Paterson will certiainly add to your knowledge of plants, creatures in fact all things environmental as well as a little history of the site.

SGAP (Society for Growing Australian Plants) was instrumental in the initial stages of the Botanic Gardens and the members of the group continue to this day in maintaining and adding new species to this almost 'Wild part" of the Gardens.
The Australian South Seas Islander Hut is accessed via a drive and carpark from Ram Chandler Drive near the Tourist Information Centre.
