Father’s Day falls on the first day of spring – and the first Sunday of the month at that.
One place the glories of spring can be found in abundance is Noosa Botanic Gardens, so why not treat dad to a morning of spring aromas, a good strong cup of coffee, and some laid-back music sitting in his favourite camping chair or similar.
At 8.30am, there’s a guided walk through the gardens if that takes his fancy, the exotic Shade Garden opens at 9am, and the music, steered as always by the redoubtable Jay Bishoff and friends, gets under way from about 10am.
Bring a picnic lunch to enjoy at any of the lookout tables dotted round the gardens, and make a day of it in peace and the tranquility of nature.
And don’t forget dad’s favourite chair.
Noosa Botanic Gardens are located on Lake Macdonald Drive, about 4km from central Cooroy.
Check the Facebook page of Noosa Botanic Gardens Friends on the morning of, just in case of inclement weather otherwise it’s all systems go.
