The
Australian Native Plants Society, Canberra Region
Inc., offers regular weekend field trips throughout
the year. Every effort is made to strike a balance
between local and interstate trips, between
short and long walks and between easy and difficult
terrain. Whatever the destination, all field
trips provide plenty of botanical interest.
Members
are reminded that they should wear a hat and
appropriate footwear and carry adequate water
at all times. Car pooling and sharing of fuel
costs is encouraged.
