Saturday 17 May 2025 – please ensure you arrive by 9:00 am

Where:

NightWings Rainforest Centre - 2125 Mossman Daintree Road, Wonga, Qld (see map below).

What to bring:

A water bottle (we will provide a water refill station)
Sturdy closed-toed boots/shoes (if it's been wet, we'd suggest gumboots or other waterproof boots)

A willingness to get your hands dirty
Locals are encouraged to bring camping chairs or picnic rugs

RR will provide:

First aid kit
Healthy snacks for morning tea
Hand sanitiser
Gloves and small trowels (locals are welcome to bring their own if they are new or clean)
3,300 native rainforest seedlings
Pre-dug holes
Light lunch
A great location
Our friendly team
Overview of the Day

The event will commence at 9:00 am, so we will be finished planting before noon (before it gets too hot).
After a morning of planting trees to restore rainforest and connectivity, you’re invited to remain on site and celebrate – after all, this will be the last Annual Community Planting Day on this site.

Health and Safety

As always, the health and safety of our staff, supporters, and the communities in which we work are of utmost importance to us.

Please ensure you dress appropriately for the event (e.g., sun-safe clothing, hat, sturdy closed-toed boots/shoes. If it's been wet, we suggest gumboots or other waterproof boots, and a raincoat). Don't forget to bring your water bottle and stay hydrated throughout the day.

If you are feeling unwell or have recently been unwell please do not attend the planting. We thank you for considering the health and safety of others

We’re looking forward to putting trees back on the land with you and celebrating our 25th birthday. See you in the Daintree!

For the rainforests,

The Rainforest Rescue Team
