Last week was National Volunteer Week and NGT would like to send a huge thank you to everyone who has played a part in helping NGT. We couldn’t do what we do without all our wonderful helpers.

Volunteers at NGT get up to all kinds of things. Our nursery volunteers sort seed, prick out new seedlings and generally are a vital part of our community nursery. Other jobs include field work at one of our reserves (like Walker Swamp or Eaglehawk Waterhole), or in their own homes, sorting through photos and identifying animals from remote cameras. If you’d like to find out about volunteering options, see last month’s blog here.
