Bushcare

There are five local Bushcare groups who provide an invaluable contribution to the environment and get to meet their neighbours in the stunning setting of Waverley’s coastal remnant vegetation areas.

Volunteers assist in weed control, improve native animal habitat, and plant local native species.

There is no cost to be involved, no minimum commitment, nor is any gardening experience required. Introductions will be made on site (so don’t be concerned if you don’t know anyone!) and supervised children are welcome. Training, tools, gloves and morning tea are provided.

  
 

To get started, fill out the volunteer form, indicating your preferred Bushcare group.
