August meeting is cancelled

 Unfortunately there has been a fresh Covid19 outbreak in Queensland and new restrictions introduced on group sizes to take effect immediately. We have had to cancel today's meeting.

Our March meeting has been cancelled

We have decided to cancel the March meeting due to current Covid-19(Corona Virus) situation. We are at this stage going to take the longer term decisions as a month by month call.

Our apologies for any disappointment that causes. Members should have received an email already.

Members are reminded of the Society members Only Facebook group https://www.facebook.com/groups/453315998661950 (and if you are not currently a financial member it's not very expensive to become one). We would love to see what you are getting up to with your trees, we should have some weeks left of good growing weather and some of us may be finding ourselves with some more "at home time" as public events and gatherings take a break.
