For those joining us next Friday the 2nd March for the World's Longest Lunch here are all the facts, and then some, logistically speaking that is....

• The Longest Lunch Long table is in a quiet corner of the gardens, a lovely stroll of approximately 500 metres from the main entrance - we suggest you wear comfortable shoes to allow you to enjoy your wander through the Botanic Gardens. Please let us know if you have any mobility challenges and we can arrange for you to reach the table by other means.
• Remember!  This is an outside event – please be prepared for changing weather - don't forget to bring a jacket and perhaps a hat (the table is in the shade, but you might like to explore a little between courses).
• In the event of bad weather, we will post a message here by 7 am on Friday 2nd March if there is to be a change of venue. If we do need to move inside volunteers will be at the Botanic Gardens to direct you to the new venue and transfers will be organised from Kyneton Station for our Vline guests
