It’s free entry into the Ginger Factory, so it’s a popular place.  There are a number of garden/forest pathways with overhanging rainbow umbrellas.  It’s surprising how pretty the effect is, as you can see below.  The gift shop had adorable placemats, also shown below.  They are just vinyl, so easy care.  I was going to get just one, for my own use (that was the echidna).  Then I decided that it would be nice to swap between two (that added the cockatoo).  After buying those two, I decided I should have the whole set (guests might need one!) – thereby adding the wombat and koala.  No regrets!  They make me feel happy.  After seeing mine, someone else on the bus got the wombat and koala and upon having a second look at mine when I was getting out of the bus, decided they had to go back and get the other two.  I’m helping the sunshine coast economy to keep chugging along.
