We love to share what we've been doing for bushcare in this vicinity and we're always looking for new members. We have plenty of local bushcare things to talk about including planting local native seedlings from the SoM, weed control methods, and how to identify and deal with invasive plants.

Your moral support means a lot to us even if you're not in a position to participate. Perhaps you have questions, or stories to tell of your own bushcare activities.

Show us you care — see you there!
