A walk and talk with Una Bell at the beautifully restored Throssell Reserve. We will be discussing the transformational journey of the reserve from what was known by locals as the 'dump' to what it is now a stunning area with a wonderful array of wildflowers. Throssell Reserve features a surfacing granite outcrop and local plants such as Yellow Starflower, Stylidiums, Verticordia and native grasses.

The beauty of the reserve as it is today is a result of the work completed by a dedicated ‘Friends of’ group and the Shire of
Mundaring.

Morning tea will be provided.
