Restoration of Wail Arboretum as a Community and Visitor Attraction
Utilising Small Towns Development Funding through the State Government and Envirofund resources from the federal government, the Friends of Wail Arboretum are currently upgrading the visitor amenities at the arboretum. This includes the restoration of public access by creation and repair of pathways in the Arboretum, improved toilet facilities for visitors, landscaping, shading and seating for visitor picnic areas and the entrance/driveway, plant and label specimens of suitable regional native flora, including the establishment of a garden of indigenous bush food plants and native grassland demonstration plot, provision of interpretative signage covering the value of indigenous flora and biodiversity, and plant identification and the erection of garden equipment shed. The project aims to create awareness and increased visitation through improved publicity including the production of this website and brochures.
