Community Planting for the Southern Pink Underwing Moth

Come along and help us plant the fastest growing forest on the Sunshine Coast. In one years time, you can walk under the cool shade of this amazing forest.

Our microforests are intensively planted native forests that establish rapidly. This means we can create accelerated habitat for species like Carronia vines that need cool, shaded conditions to grow. The Carronia vine is the only host plant for the endangered Southern Underwing Moth. 

This community forest planting is funded by Unitywater's Healthy and Thriving Community Grants Program.
