Inner West Council Tree Day – Marrickville

Inner West Council’s Urban Ecology team invites you to take part in National Tree Day Planting at Marrickville.
This is an exciting opportunity to restore an area of Estuarine Swamp Oak Forest and increase habitat corridors for local native fauna along the river by planting much needed mid and understory vegetation.

Come and get your hands dirty, give back to the community and be part of our group effort to improve biodiversity in the Inner West!
