Community planting for National Tree Day: Wood St Playground
Sunday 19 July from 10am to 11am
Or until all the planting is done.
Show your support for National Tree Day. Help transform a local playground into a richer habitat for wildlife.
Pitch in at Wood Street Playground in Forest Lodge and help plant 250 native grasses, herbs and wildflowers alongside local volunteers from the Friends of Orphan School Creek.
By increasing native plant diversity, we’re creating a healthier ecosystem where birds, insects and other wildlife can thrive – using the plants they’ve relied on for thousands of years.
