Group convenor: Katherine Cooke
The Wittonga Park Bushcare Group is restoring the headwaters of Fish Creek within Wittonga Park, The Gap. From 2000 to 2018, Kath and Bernie Stockill worked in Wittonga Park restoring native vegetation along Fish Creek. Following a community planting of 2500 plants in 2019 to celebrate SOWN’s 25th anniversary, Kath and Bernie retired. The current group has been planting extensively along Fish Creek to widen the riparian corridor.
Wittonga Park is a Habitat Brisbane group supported by Brisbane City Council and SOWN.
The group meets on the third Sunday of the month. You can contact Katherine by email at WittongaParkBushcare@gmail.com. For current activities and information, the group has a Facebook page at: https://www.facebook.com/wittongaparkbushcare/
