Walks & Talks at Ku-ring-gai Wildflower Garden
NSG Walks & Talks activities run from March to November.
About the Walks & Talks
Hear a talk by members of the North Shore group of the Australian Plants Society then be guided on a walk in the Ku-ring-gai Wildflower Garden to see and learn about our focus species as they come into flower.
Meet at 9.45 am at Caley’s Pavilion in the Ku-ring-gai Wildflower Garden, 420 Mona Vale Road, St Ives.
For your safety in the Ku-ring-gai Wildflower Garden, we will ask you for your name, mobile number and emergency contact number on arrival.
Sessions run 10am to about 12 noon unless a later return time is indicated.
Sessions are free. No booking required.
No prior knowledge is required and information sheets will be provided.
Walks are easy/medium grade.
