About

Following the AGM, Janet O'Hehir, guest speaker will talk on 'Rescuing Our Botanical Heritage’ 10 years of Camperdown Botanic Gardens and Arboretum Trust

Janet leads a community group in its campaign to rejuvenate and protect the Camperdown Botanic Gardens, and to reclaim and redevelop its surrounding Arboretum. Victoria’s botanic gardens are a special part of the heritage of many of our large and small towns. Janet is particularly interested in the challenge of conserving those gardens as places of beauty for their local communities and visitors, and as places that can enthuse and educate the public about plants. Janet will share the challenges and achievements that have transformed the Camperdown Botanic Gardens and Arboretum over the past 12 years.
