Did you know the 2019
Queensland Garden Expo is celebrating 35 years!
This first event in 1985, was a one day event with
30 exhibitors, 300 visitors, 5 workshops and a
Plant Clinic. Organised by a dedicated group of
volunteers the event quickly grew over the ensuing
years to become the three day event it is today.
The aim of the event has always been to provide
the general public with expert advice and
information on a range of gardening subjects
and it’s great to see the spirit of gardening
?
How many years have you been coming
alive and flourishing in Queensland.
