Growing Friends Spring Native Plant Sale
The Spring Sale was held on Saturday 12 October and, like previous sales, was a great success. Around 1100 plants were sold in less than 30 minutes. Some people knew precisely which plants they wanted and headed straight for them while others sought advice from the Growing Friends ‘gurus’. Everyone seemed happy with their purchases and keen to plant them out.

Friends Public Fund has changed
|
The Australian Government has changed the rules relating to environmental funds, and that includes the Friends of the ANBG Public Fund. The Register of Environmental Organisations has been abolished, and along with it the need for the Friends to have a separate Public Fund. Donations will now be made directly to the Friends, and will continue to be tax deductible. Donors will be issued with an official receipt which clearly shows that the donation is tax deductible. |
