Come and see the variety of pollination processes that make up the beautiful world of plants in our gardens. Join a volunteer guide on this special walk at Brisbane Botanic Gardens Mt Coot-tha. Requirements: This walk includes moderate physical activity, including walking slightly longer distances, up gentle slopes and stairs or walking on some uneven surfaces. Some standing periods for guide explanations but no sitting. Please wear a hat, enclosed walking shoes, and be sure to bring a water bottle and sunscreen.
