Our aim is to protect the bushland, and contribute to the regeneration of the native flora in the wetlands. The area provides food, shelter and habitats for the native fauna and regeneration of our native flora.
Our goal is to keep the community informed of our conservation efforts. We encourage youngsters to learn about the environment, and keep the community informed of our ongoing activities.
This continuation area of 126 hectares includes the Brixton Street Wetlands and extends north-east as far as Welshpool Road and Tonkin Hwy. This area is protected as a Bush Forever Site.
Fauna and flora surveys are conducted regularly by both the friends and professionals who meet our conservation values to identify threatened ecological communities and rare species.
To help preserve this fragile environment, we convene regularly to help maintain the bushland. As well as planting and weeding, we also clear any damage caused by harsh weather and general waste.
Our ongoing conservation efforts have helped the wetlands retain a thriving and functional ecosystem that is home to a diverse assortment of birds, frogs and other fauna that have been attracted to the area.
Our efforts ensure community awareness and we encourage local members to join us on our regular activity days. Our activity mornings are held on the third Saturday of each month, and you can meet us at the Alton Street gate, Kenwick, at 9am to 10.30 am followed by morning tea.
