March IGC Garden Club Walk

Our wonderful walks leader, Anna, took us on a fantastic local walk on March 23rd.

We walked some of Darebin Parklands entering from Ivanhoe under the bridge starting at the small historic area of Sparks Reserve.

Many of us had walked through Darebin Parklands before but Anna did an excellent job of showing us the noteworthy areas and reminding us of the areas early history. Tolls to cross the bridge and other equally entertaining stories.

It was also inspiring to hear of the many people  and environmental groups who fought to establish the park and then worked to create many of its beautiful features.

We had a great morning that was followed by an excellent morning tea/lunch.  Thank you to Anna for organising the morning, those who provided the yummy food, and all who participated.
