Our speaker Mich Newton gave us some lovely insights to the Auckland Botanical Gardens. How ideas have developed under the management of Jack Hobbs including the conservation of threatened species, the growing on of large numbers of plants for the regional parks and the use of the feedback from visitors to keeping the whole 64hectaries relevant to today’s visitors, (including 10 hectares of native forest).
All round it was an enjoyable and informative evening.
Our dinner meetings are on the fourth Wednesday of each month and visitors are always welcome. For more information please email secretary@bpwfranklin.org.nz
