Join us for an exciting morning of bush regeneration and education at Platypus Landcare in the Hills!

Get ready to make a positive impact on the beautiful natural surroundings of Dural. This in-person event will take place on Sat, Mar 16, 2024, at 09:30 AM.

Whether you're an interested landholder, nature enthusiast or simply looking for a fun and fulfilling activity, this event is perfect for you. Together, we will engage in the removal of a small amount of invasive species and work to maintain the local ecosystem.

We will watch a presentation which has been tailored to the theme of the event "riverbank restoration". This presentation will include information on.

• what holds a creek/riverbank together?
• what species of plant do I plant?
• what does a platypus burrow look like?
• what does a healthy creek look like?
• what is a riparian zone?
• and much more...

Don't miss this opportunity to connect with like-minded individuals, learn about environmental conservation, and contribute to the preservation of our precious wildlife. So, mark your calendars and join us at Platypus Landcare in the Hills for a day of eco-friendly education!
