share a meal with the Daylesford & District Horticultural Society and guest speaker Jane Tonkin

The speaker for the Feast will be Jane Tonkin from Bryan H Tonkin Bulbs in the Dandenongs. Jane’s talk will focus on South African Bulbs. Tonkin Bulbs is a 60-year-old mail order nursery business specialising in many interesting bulbs from around the world.
