Community Tree Planting 29 June 2025

Why not lend us a hand on Sunday 29 June 2025 to help plant native plants along the banks of Hawthornden Creek?

Commencing at 10am in Jaques Park South Bathurst, adults and kids alike can help plant native trees, shrubs and grasses that once mature will provide habitat for local wildlife, and improve the health and ecological function of this important urban waterway. Council will also have a free BBQ lunch afterwards.

No experience is needed, and all plants and equipment are provided. Please bring water, sunscreen, and a hat and wear suitable shoes, and clothing for being outdoors. To ensure safe hygiene practices we ask that you please bring along your own gardening gloves. Council will provide hand washing facilities.

The event will go ahead in light rain, so please bring a wet weather jacket just in case.All children must be accompanied and supervised by an adult carer.
