Social Events Gallery

On 6 July, despite the damp weather, around 20 of our members enjoyed a trip to Nambour to explore the Queensland Garden Expo 2024.

There was something for everyone, from interesting talks on garden-related topics, heaps of plants and garden displays to a large assortment of miscellaneous products. With plenty of time to look around, a good time was had by all.Thanks to Suzanne for organizing the trip and to our driver for getting us there and back safely. And thanks to our wonderful Social Media Manager, Marianne, who took these lovely pictures.
