We are always looking for new faces to join our Bushcare team in the Ku-ring-gai Flying-fox Reserve. No experience is needed and on-site training is provided. The reserve is a beautiful gully forest along Stoney Creek in Gordon, walkable from Gordon station, and our work restores the canopy and rainforest species that grey-headed flying-foxes depend on.
Volunteers work in the reserve on most Tuesday mornings. Come and try it for a day, or stay for the season — you would be very welcome.
The benefits of bushcare
- Meet people with a wealth of knowledge about bush regeneration and flying-foxes
- Gain experience in native plant and weed identification and revegetation
- Spend the morning outdoors among trees, birds and the occasional wallaby
- Directly restore critical grey-headed flying-fox habitat
