Nestbox Making with Bruce (Natimuk Wellness Project x Horsham District Landcare Network)

📍Location: ArapilesFlow Movement Studio, 117 Main Street, Natimuk (enter via Depot Lane)

Nestbox Workshop – Coming to Natimuk! 🐦🦇

Join us for a hands-on 90-minute workshop where you’ll assemble your own nestbox to support local wildlife. Natimuk Wellness Project and Horsham District Landcare Network are partnering to bring this workshop to Natimuk!

Guided by Bruce, you’ll put together a nestbox designed for gliders or small parrots, or roosting boxes for micro-bats. You’ll leave with a completed nestbox ready to install in your backyard or on your property (or to donate).

Following the January fires, many mature hollow-bearing trees were lost across Natimuk, Grass Flat, and Quantong - removing important breeding habitat for native birds and mammals.

This workshop is family-friendly
(Participants under 18 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian)

About the facilitator
Bruce McInnes from Laharum Landcare will guide the session.

What to bring

• All tools and materials are provided but if you have a drill or impact driver, please bring it along

• Wear clothes you don’t mind getting paint on, or bring an apron

Optional dinner meeting 🍲
Following the workshop from 7pm onwards, there will be a catered meeting for interested community members to share and discuss ideas on how Landcare can support fire recovery, and how you can get involved.

When booking, please let us know:

• Your preferred nestbox type

• Whether you’re interested in future nestbox monitoring
