GINGIN GETTING INTO SPRING

WITH A FABULOUS ARRAY OF WILDFLOWERS

Cruise the back roads between the coast and country of the Gingin Region and investigate some of the beautiful wild flowers available to see for FREE!  The coastal strip and the new Indian Ocean Drive is a happy days outing as the larger trucks are not permitted on this road.  Stop in to one or two of the coastal towns Guilderton for fish n chips, Seabird the tavern now has Sunday licence, Ledge Point for the bakery, or Lancelin and try some crayfish.  Returning down Brand Highway for some Olive Oil at Regans Ford area and take home honey and wines from the Gingin area.

Don't forget the camera for those spectacular wild flowers, yellow wattles are out already and smoke bush is coming on the scene now so it won't be long and this will be followed by the beautiful kangaroo paws, purple, cream, yellow, pink the rainbow of wild flower colour is resplendent.  Canola is flowering now - I know its not a wildflower but hey with all those green paddocks and the yellow no wonder green and gold are the Australian colours for the Olympics.  Brooks, Streams, Lakes and Rivers are running fast and the crops are growing even faster, its been a lot of rain this year and eveyone's feeling good.
