A Great Supporter of the Gardens

The pavilion was named for Dame Elisabeth Murdoch, a long-time supporter of Cranbourne Gardens. Dame Elisabeth has funded many programs across the organisation.

Connecting to Country

While exploring Cranbourne Garden’s extensive remnant native bushland, you will see signs highlighted yellow representing the various wattle species that once grew throughout the area and hold particular significance to Bunurong. Wattle are some of the most highly used plants by Bunurong and are used as a source for food, medicine and materials for making clothes, tools and weapons.
