THURSDAY NURSERY VOLUNTEER SESSIONS ARE ON under the cOVID traffic light system
IMPORTANT
COVID19 update
As you will be aware, the government has declared the country as “orange” in the COVID ‘Traffic Light’ system and the requirement of vaccine passes has been outlined. However as we have a significant number of cases of COVID in the area we will continue with the following safety measures until further notice.
We need to keep details of who is present at our nursery sessions and in that regard would you please confirm you hold a vaccine pass at your next visit to the nursery by showing whoever is signing you in. This will be required only once.
If you have not been vaccinated please do not attend, as it is our responsibility to ensure we do the best we can for each other and keep the nursery facility as safe as possible from the virus.
AFTERNOON SESSIONS: THURSDAYS FROM 1 - 3PM.

Here is the latest on what we are up to. Find out more about our projects and community collaborations.
Places to go
Information and photos to help you discover our 'world of difference.'
A 'mostly' monthly email with local plant profile, upcoming events and what we have been doing amongst other things.
We rely on generous donations from the public, sponsorship and grants to ensure our nursery can eco source and propagate native plants along with providing a hub for community involvement and learning. The projects we are involved in will ultimately create areas of native bush providing homes for our native wildlife.
