Help NSW National Parks reach our goal of planting 1700 trees in Cudgera Creek Nature Reserve. Every tree you plant will revegetate previously grazed lands and enhance existing koala habitat. 

It’s important to arrive at 9am, because that’s when we’ll brief all volunteers on how and where to plant, and other details of the morning. At the end of the day, enjoy a free sausage sizzle on us. You’ll meet like-minded people while doing important work for the environment.

This is a great family-friendly activity.
