Creating Canopies in Penrith

Come along for a morning of tree planting at Ellison Reserve. We’re planting trees to help cool down Sydney and create valuable habitats for birds and other wildlife.

Green spaces aren’t just great for wildlife, they’re also associated with better physical health, lower stress levels, and greater community satisfaction. Plus they cool down our neighborhoods! Now’s your chance to get involved with greening your community.

Please wear long sleeves, long pants, closed sturdy shoes, a hat, and sunscreen, and bring a drinking bottle with water.

On-site training, tools, and LUNCH will be provided.

RSVPs are essential, to avoid disappointment please register ASAP.

All children under 16 years of age must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.

Please arrive on time for check-in, training, and to avoid missing out on the fun!

Events are not guaranteed to run the full day.

For more information about this planting day, please contact Project Manager Danielle at [email protected].

We acknowledge and pay our respects to the Traditional Custodians of the land on which this event will take place.

Landcare NSW and Greater Sydney Landcare are planting 200,000 trees as part of the Greening our City program to help mitigate urban heat in Greater Sydney. Proudly funded by the NSW Government.
