The beautiful colours and smells of flowers will fill Coorabell Hall for the return of the hall’s Flower Show on March 9 and 10.
Co-organiser Lyn McCarthy says the show has been ‘an iconic event in the Byron hinterland for 53 years’.
Lyn says, ‘A homage to flowers in general, but in particular the dahlia. The hall will be open to everyone from midday to 5pm on Saturday, March 9, and 10am to 4pm on Sunday, March 10’.
‘Local champion growers, Bruce and Stephen Wedd, are once again contributing their magnificent prize-winning dahlias and a number of other local growers are involved.
‘As well as the flower displays, attendees can learn how to create a stunning flower crown. There will be flower-based perfume making demonstrations and a Hawaiian hula singing and dancing display.
‘On Saturday, March 9, a fundraising gourmet feast will be held with dinner prepared by award-winning chef Nadine Abensur with entertainment by singing sensation Jack Watson. This is a ticketed event’.
