Make it your first Sunday

Last year, trying to organise any sort of outside event was a risky roll of the dice when it came to La Nina weather.

Noosa Botanic Gardens Friends group persevered in their commitment to the First Sunday series of activities in the gardens, however – and today, with much more reliable weather, the mix of a guided walk through the gardens from 8.30am, the supply of good coffee and snacks throughout the morning, and the joyous entertainment of Music in the Gardens from 10am, is a regular go-to event for many Noosa residents across the shire.

Sunday 4 June will be no exception, so pack a hat, walking shoes and chair or rug to prepare you for all these activities, and you will get to see some of the spectacular sights emerging from the autumn colours of trees across the eight-hectare gardens, along with grooving to the laid-back sounds of Jay Bishoff, Andy Higgins and friends down under the shady jacaranda trees.

Noosa Botanic Gardens are on Lake Macdonald Drive.
