AAFBG
The Australian Association of Friends of Botanic Gardens (AAFBG) is a national network which was developed to provide a forum for communication, information and promotion between members, related botanic gardens groups and the community. The Association has an MOU with the parallel botanic gardens management network, Botanic Gardens of Australia and New Zealand (BGANZ).
The Friends of Geelong Botanic Gardens was an inaugural member of the Association of Friends of Botanic Gardens (Victoria) Incorporated in 1993, with 19 members. In response to growing interest, AFBG became a national network in 2001 and has a membership of more than 50 Friends of Botanic Gardens and Arboreta and similar groups in Australia, with several international Affiliate Members.
