Planting for a Healthy River

We’re spending the morning by the water and planting native species to help improve fish habitat along the Nepean River!

We’re increasing the biodiversity within the riparian area, with the aim to improve fish habitat for native fish species who call this river home! By planting trees and shrubs along the riverbank, we’re increasing the biodiversity of the river and providing important sources of food and shelter for fish. Creating healthy aquatic habitat increases fish diversity.

Stick around after you finish planting for a well-deserved BBQ lunch!

We are excited to partner with Bass Sydney Fishing Club who have a long connection to this site, and they will be there on the day to help plant.

All refreshments and activity equipment provided. Children under 16 must have adult supervision.

The event is free, but bookings are essential.

Feel free to bring your own rod and gear to fish once we are done! Anyone over the age of 18 who is holding a rod and fishing should have a licence. Exemptions include an adult supervising a youngster, or a pensioner with a pension card
