Garden Sundays back

The Friends of Noosa Botanic Gardens have vowed to continue their First Sunday (of the month) concerts in the gardens despite grant funding running out – at least for the time being.

The next one will be on this Sunday 3 July from 9am – and any donations or sponsorships for the growing event will be gladly accepted.

Popular duo Jay Bishoff and Andy Higgins will be playing songs from 10am, with Rob from Bus Stop Espresso supplying Cooroy Coffee Roasters coffee to his many disciples.

The Shade Garden gates will also open from 9am-noon for those wanting a special botanical experience.

The Sunday events have grown rapidly over the last six months as word has gone out about the tranquil, relaxing atmosphere combined with the fun happenings in the gardens – and by happy coincidence, the gardens turn 35 years old this Sunday – and there will be cake!

So why not come down, bring a picnic and chairs – and make a day of it. The weather’s perfect right now.

Noosa Botanic Gardens are located on Lake Macdonald Drive, about 4km from Cooroy.
