We’re calling on local families, children and nature lovers to help discover, identify and record as many plant, animal and fungi species as possible in our local area.

It’s a great chance to get outdoors, learn about local biodiversity and contribute to important community science. This will allow us to monitor changes over time, particularly with the projected impacts of climate change.

Come along to see what amazing species we can find!

Join us at the Flinders Park Community Garden for a hands on gardening experience. Our community garden is a free space where anyone can pick what they need, and meet their local community in a friendly relaxed atmosphere.

This workshop will be presented by Drew Kilner from Walking Together with Kaurna, alongside Steven Hoepfner from the City of Charles Sturt.

Drew will teach us about traditional plants and their uses, health benefits and how they tie in with stories and culture. Together we will plant a brand new bush tucker garden for our community to enjoy.

All tools and plants will be provided. Please BYO gloves.
