Eden Cemetery, is a lovingly maintained and historic cemetery, located right on the beautiful Aslings Beach, this will strongly influence the programme for this event. Jackie Miles will cover flora both in the Cemetery and along the beach margins, Deb Taylor will we scouring the whole area for our beloved invertebrates. History walk and talk will be led long-term member of Eden Cemetery Committee, Peter Phillips who will give fascinating insights to the Cemeteries past. Our lunch time speakers will cover topics such as coastal erosion and how Council manages our beach environments, we will hear about the work on the reestablishment Eden little penguin colony from the group that has led this effort and we will also hear about the newly established Eden Landcare group.
