For those who still want to get out and enjoy the spring you can join the guided walk in Lismore Rainforest Botanic Gardens (LRBG) on Sunday, 26 October from 9.30am.
‘This walk is designed to show visitors the local, dry rainforest plants used by Aboriginal people for over 40,000 years, for medicine, tools, food and shelter,’ said Tracey Whitby from Friends of LRBG.
‘The walk begins in the Sensory Garden and continues into the Useful Plants Garden. Plants are labelled and signage also gives extra details about these wonderful native plants which you can grow in your home garden. It is a shady, unpaved walk, with one small incline.’
Adults $5, children free (cash or card). Meet at the Visitor’s Centre at the LRBG, 313 Wyrallah Road, East Lismore. Bookings essential email, [email protected].
