Since 2020, local residents have been caring for a small recreational reserve off Tannant Avenue and St Fagans Parade, Rutherford. It is 2 hectares of mixed open parkland and remnant Lower Hunter Spotted Gum Ironbark Forest where masses of woody weed trees have been removed and replaced with native trees, shrubs and grasses. Working bees occur regularly. For more information about the Rutherford site or our other Maitland sites at East Maitland, Walka and Bolwarra, contact maitlandlandcare@gmail.com or follow our sites on Facebook.
