Celebrating: the launch of the Growing Illawarra Natives website!

This is the blog post I've been wanting to put up for...what...four or five years! Whooohoo!!!

Over that time, we've been celebrating all sorts of amazing things: plants, national parks, private gardens, ecological communities and committed plant people.

And all those things are truly wonderful. But in the background the Growing Illawarra Natives website has been ... percolating. Being developed. Preparing. And now, after all these years, here it is: we're ready to launch. And it's your chance to come along and celebrate!!!
