Bushcare and Rivercare

Bushcare and Rivercare is all about restoring the resilience of natural areas on Council owned or managed land. Bushcare groups work in bushland reserves and Rivercare groups work in riparian areas near waterways. Bushcare and Rivercare groups are established when an existing reserve is identified as a high priority for restoration and there are a minimum of three interested volunteers willing to work 3 hrs once per month with support from Council’s Bushcare Team. 

If you are interested in joining an existing group or forming a new group please have a look at the following pages or contact:
