The first First Sunday of 2024

Yes, it’s back. The music, the nature, the walks, the floral mysteries – and the coffee.

Put Sunday February 4 in your diaries for a return to the magic of Noosa Botanic Gardens, where all your favourite activities will once again brighten your Sunday.

Take a guided walk from 8.30am to see what summer means in the gardens.

Step into the cooling Shade Garden from 9am to experience some of the more exotic plants the gardens offer.

Bring a chair or mat to sit down under the poinciana trees and be regaled by Jay Bishoff, Andy Higgins and friends from 10am – pooches welcome under leashed supervision, too.

And don’t forget to order your fresh Bus Stop coffee before settling in.

Maybe make a day of it by bringing some lunch and bag a picnic table – there are many dotted around Lake Macdonald’s edges to choose from.

Finally, check the weather on the day at the Noosa Botanic Gardens Friends Facebook page – also for any more information you want about Noosa Shire’s hidden treasure, Noosa Botanic Gardens.

The gardens are situated on Lake Macdonald Drive, about 4km from Cooroy.
