About Meetings

Click for CalendarVisitors are welcome at our group meetings, which are generally held on the 4th Friday every second month.  Occasionally we have an outing on the weekend instead of a Friday meeting; check our “What’s On?” page for details of upcoming meetings.  Our regular meetings feature a guest speaker, a plant raffle, a table with cuttings of currently flowering natives, (which are discussed), plants propagated at our nursery, our library, and are finished off with a social chat and supper. We start meetings at 8pm.
