The Grand Champion at a previous South Burnett Orchid Show

April 16, 2015

If you’re heading to Wondai this weekend to check out the huge Autumn Garden Expo at the sportsground, there’s two other related events that are also well worth a look.

The South Burnett Orchid Society will be holding its annual Orchid Show on Saturday (April 18) in the Diggers Room at the Wondai RSL Club.

This show always features a large range of rare, colourful – and sometimes wacky – orchids shown by collectors from all over south-east Queensland.

It will run from 9:30am to 3:00pm. Cost to enter is $3.00.

There will also be plants available for sale as well as raffles.

Wine from Moffatdale Ridge cellardoor will be available for tasting.

The third garden-related event is the Wondai Art Gallery’s April exhibition, which features entries in the now-traditional Wondai Garden Expo Art Competition.

The paintings are on display in the Wondai Town Hall – just next door to the RSL Club – and feature many carefully crafted works by local artists.

The exhibition is open from 10:00am-4:00pm daily at the Town Hall because the gallery’s regular home at the roundabout is closed for repairs.

Entry is free.
