Sustainable Park Community Planting

You are invited to a free community planting event to help plant grasses and wildflowers into the nature conservation reserve at Sustainable Park.

Bring your family along as there is a great playground there, and WildlifeXposure will have engaging shows of native wildlife. Are you brave enough to pet or hold a snake!

This planting will create more habitat for native bees and butterflies, and help restore this small patch of rare native grassland.

What to bring

• Wear weather-appropriate clothing and bring a rain/wind-proof jacket.
