Your team will help us remove bitou bush and other weeds. Bitou bush is doing serious and widespread damage to threatened species populations and ecological communities on the NSW coast. Volunteers will use handheld gardening tools – no chemicals are used during this activity. This allows for regrowth of the critically endangered Banksia scrub and grassland species.
Teams who volunteer at La Perouse in Kamay Botany Bay National Park help preserve the historic La Perouse precinct. They also help us care for the local native habitat, which is home to white-bellied sea eagles, water dragons, blue-tongue lizards and many flowering plants.
Corporate volunteers participate in team-building activities, contribute to NPWS conservation goals and learn about Sydney’s history. It’s a great opportunity for your people to build team spirit, while also contributing to a meaningful conservation program.
