Creating a Wildlife Friendly Garden

Australia faces an extinction crisis, with native wildlife habitat disappearing at an alarming rate over the past two centuries. But everyone can contribute to reversing this trend—starting right in their own backyard! Transform your home garden into a safe haven for native birds, frogs, insects, and mammals.

In this workshop, you will learn how to:

Identify common types of wildlife that visit and thrive in gardens
Use native and selected non-native plants to provide food and shelter
Design your garden with diverse habitat features
Build and install nesting boxes and shelters for wildlife
Provide water sources and other essentials that support wildlife survival
Recognize harmful garden practices and things to avoid
Monitor and record the wildlife visiting your garden

Join us to make a meaningful difference for Australia's native wildlife by creating your own backyard sanctuary!
