Top Sunday family day

A serene, beautiful garden backdrop – check.

Good music from popular singer/songwriter Jay Bishoff and musical friends – check.

Fantastic coffee a few steps away, supplied by Rob’s Bus Stop Espresso – check.

A visit to a botanical marvel – check.

A picnic with the family – including the dog (on leash) – check.

That’s the best five things you can wish for – and get – this Sunday May 1, at Noosa Botanic Gardens’ regular First Sunday of the month event.

It’s not so different from most other First Sunday events at the gardens – but it’s so popular, why change things?

Jay, who starts at 10am, has been progressively building the audience over the last few months, to make this the Sunday place to be, so come on down and check it out.

The Friends of Noosa Botanic Gardens will be on hand to help with any enquiries – and the coffee’s on from 9am.

Oh, the ’botanical marvel’ is the Shade Garden, which will open for the morning at 9 – well worth a visit.

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