You don’t need any prior experience—just enthusiasm and a willingness to help. Activities include managing environmental weeds, planting native species, creating habitats for wildlife, and participating in citizen science projects.
Whether you’re a teen, young adult, or senior, this group welcomes all ages and skill levels to connect with nature and stay active.
The group meets on the third Sunday of each month from 8:30 to 10:30 in the morning. Volunteers work together to maintain and improve the habitat at Goodenia Reserve.
Tasks may involve hands-on gardening, planting native flora, removing invasive species, and monitoring wildlife habitats. It’s a fulfilling way to learn new skills and contribute to environmental conservation.
Bring sturdy shoes, gloves, water, and a hat to stay comfortable while working outdoors.
