PAST EVENT

More to see and know: Australian Botanic Gardens Shepparton

Who would've thought an old landfill could look so beautiful? The Australian Botanic Gardens Shepparton has long been the site of many stories, from Traditional use, to the families who lived there, to a landfill site and now a showcase of Australian native plants for all to enjoy.

Explore and relish in the beauty of the evolving Australian Botanic Gardens with a guided talk from RiverConnect and the Friends of the Australian Botanic Gardens Shepparton.

The area has been regenerated into a showcase of Australian native plants set amongst distinct themed gardens and bushland that celebrates the history and diversity of the region. However it wasn’t always this way; the area has been on a journey through many connected stories that you will come to know and love.

Tea and coffee will be provided at the end of the talk and we invite you to stay a while after to fully explore the gardens in all their glory.
