Southern Highlands Botanic Gardens

The botanic garden is a community funded project being developed on a 15 hectare site since 2015. Since then we have developed parts of the garden according to our concept plan to reflect the seasons. It's early days for the botanic gardens so we hold our very popular plant sales and annual open gardens event to raise awareness and funds for the garden.
