The Wildflower Show Shop offers many wildflower related books, cards and products, and features the work of local artists and crafts people. The Ravensthorpe Herbarium, situated next door to the Wildflower Show, holds many hundred botanical specimens collected from within the Ravensthorpe Shire. Experts on the local flowers are on hand each day for identification queries. Devonshire Teas are available each day, provided by local fund raising organisations. The comfortable surroundings of the 106 year old Ravensthorpe Community Centre will make a refreshing 'tea break' for the weary traveller. On Saturday 18th September a Wildflower Expo and Market Day will be held in the Ravensthorpe Hall. There will be guest speakers, stalls, concert, and refreshments available. There are spectacular drives and walks in the district. A brochure, available at the Visitors Centre and at the Wildflower Show, identifies 12 drives designed for viewing particular flowers. It is also illustrated with stunning photographs. Walks: The Hopetoun-Ravensthorpe Railway Heritage Walk Trail is made up of four sections along the old railway track between the two towns. There are plaques identifying flora and fauna and historical sites along the way. Brochures with maps of each section are available. Proceeds from the Wildflower Show are donated to the Senior Citizens and to the Ravensthorpe Historical Society. |
