Here’s a pre-Christmas event not to be missed.
Noosa Botanic Gardens is celebrating its final first Sunday of the month event for 2021 with an extravaganza of activities on the morning of Sunday 5 December.
First up, at the Botanical Printing Christmas workshop you can create your own Christmas gifts, from 9am to noon.
Explore the different plant materials that can be used to print on paper and fabric. Take home some botanically printed fabric to make gift tags, notebooks and greeting cards.
Bookings are essential at noosabotanicgardensfriends.com
Alternatively you can sit and enjoy the sounds of Jay Bishoff, a well-known performer throughout Noosa, whose 500-plus songbook will keep you entertained through the morning.
And to top it off, you can get muffins and a superb Cooroy Roasters cup of coffee by Rob and Beth from Cooroy’s own famous Bus Stop Espresso, who will, for the first time, be setting up a mini-Bus Stop at the gardens.
The blissful Shade Garden will also be open from 9am to noon to complete your morning pleasures.
You can also bring a picnic and make a day of it – even bring your dog (on a leash) – and enjoy the serenity of the lake and the eight hectares of lush gardens.
It’s going to be a special summer’s day at Noosa Botanic Gardens – whatever you decide to do with it.
