Over the summer, a significant amount of box elder woody weeds were removed from Turtle Island and now it's time to get some native seedlings in! Our plantings will create a much more diverse habitat which will provide extra refuges for native animals as the climate continues to change and urban areas grow.

Please note: You will be required to paddle in a canoe a short distance across the Murray River to reach Turtle Island.

When: 9:00 am to 1:00 pm.

Where: Meet at the Doctors Point boat ramp.

What is supplied: All tools and any specific safety equipment needed.

What to bring: BYO drinking water. For your safety, please wear covered shoes (preferably boots), long pants, long sleeves, and a hat.

This project is funded by the Australian Government’s Natural Heritage Trust under the Urban Rivers and Catchments Program.
