Koala Tree Community Planting sponsored by the Community Bushcare Team at IndigiScapes
We need you at the Koala Community Planting!
Join in the fun with the Redlands Coast Community Bushcare Team and help us put 2000 native plants in the ground to expand habitat for our local wildlife at Station Street Wetlands. Members of Station Street Bushcare Group will be more than happy to talk about their site successes and wildlife spotted over the last 20 years.
Researchers and the detection dogs from University of the Sunshine Coast Detection Dogs for Conservation will be on hand to answer all your koala conservation questions.
Following the planting, the researchers will share some insights into the Redlands Coast koala population from their many years spent in the field.
At 11am, join the detection dogs and researchers for a koala spotting walk where you’ll learn trade tips and tricks for successfully finding our fluffiest marsupial!
Provided: Plants, tools, sunscreen, insect repellent, gardening gloves, a cold drink and sausage sizzle!
What to bring: Enclosed shoes, sun protection and drinking water.
Please note there is limited on-site parking. A shuttle will be available between the Wellington Point Commuter Car Park, located approximately 800 metres from the site, at 55 Harris Street, Wellington Point. Participants are also encouraged to park here and walk down.
We hope to see you there!
