1st Casuarina Planting Day tomorrow!

Our first big planting day as part of the Federal Government Communities Environment Project grant we secured will be held tomorrow. Little elves from Commonwood Farm and the Braidwood Urban Landcare Group have been busy getting things ready for the big day. We have 140 casuarinas to plant. All will be introduced to the lower floodplain section of the Braidwood Common targeting habitat provision for the glossy black cockatoo.

The site is all prepared with mown paths and bridges. Stakes and wire guards for every tree. Here’s the flyer we’ve shared on our Facebook and Instagram feeds–come one, come all! It should be a great day out.

If you can’t make tomorrow, don’t worry. There’ll be more planting days over the next few months as we add more native trees and shrubs as habitat for other local birds, including the scarlet robin.
