Join us for National Tree Day at Eaglehawk Waterhole this August

NGT have been lucky enough to secure a grant through National Tree Day’s Seedling Bank to host a planting day at Eaglehawk Waterhole.
Eaglehawk Waterhole was NGT’s first habitat restoration reserve, and is located in the upper south-east (~1.5 hrs north of Mt Gambier) and is a special spot for native birds and other wildlife as we’ve shared in a few recent posts.

National Tree Day is held annually at the end of July to promote tree planting around the country, and NGT have held a few events at Eaglehawk in the past. This year we’ll be planting a variety of species including Desert Banksia, tea-tree, grass trees and the native food, Yam Daisy.

The final details of this year’s event are subject to a little bit more rain, but we’re aiming for a Friday in mid to late August. If you would like to register your interest, by emailing Jess, she will let you as soon as a date has been set.
