Join us as we help to grow food for sick, injured and orphaned native animals in the care of local wildlife rescue groups. These working bees are a great opportunity to learn about native gardening, local plant species, local wildlife and to have a laugh and connect with locals and wildlife carers in your area!We are working together to help feed rescued wildlife and establish planting plots to grow food for rescued wildlife in care. The Growing Food for Wildlife project at Annangrove is a local wildlife rescue group and The Hills Shire Council Community Environment Centre initiative.Wildlife rescue volunteers can collect foliage and buds, shoots, and flowers from our existing native plant garden to feed wildlife in care such as possums and gliders, some of which eat up to 1kg of greens a day!A typical working bee may involve weeding invasive species and maintenance of planting plots, planting new native species, harvesting native foliage for animals in care, wildlife talks and a social BBQ at the end of the event (BYO food) to connect, socialise and share a meal together!If you would like to help in this project, please feel free to come along to one of our working bees (currently the second Saturday of the month 10am-1pm) to be part of making a difference for rescued wildlife and wildlife carers and meet local wildlife and environment volunteers in your community.Join us and be a wildlife grower in your community!Note- join us on Saturday 9 November for a special event Nature Art for the family to discover nature treasures and create art and masterpieces to take home!
