Nature Nights - Frog friendly gardens

Hop into action for the frogs!

Come along to the Port Environment Centre for an evening of nature, creativity and community. Nature is messy and learn how to create a garden that supports local frogs and other wildlife. We’ll also have some frog-friendly plants to GIVEAWAY.

Here’s what’s happening:

4:00–5:00pm – Rock painting of frogs
5:00–6:00pm – Eco discussion: This month’s topics –

• Article 1: Hot frogs and sizzling salamanders: climate change is pushing amphibians to their limits

• Article 2: How greenwashing can lead us astray in the pursuit of wildlife-friendly gardens

6:00–7:30pm – Learn about Adelaide’s frogs with Steve Walker, FrogWatch SA Coordinator. Then design your own frog-friendly garden with Steve’s tips. Bring a Google Maps printout of your garden or we can print it for you on the night.

We’ll also give away frog-friendly plants after Steve’s session.

FREE | All ages | All welcome
A light supper will be provided (please register for catering purpose).

Take some time away from screens, meet others in the community and be inspired to make your garden a home for wildlife.

It is good that we all acknowledge we are living on Kaurna Country.
