Create your own urban garden

Create a native garden in your backyard.

Urban Wildlife Gardens (UWG) is excited to launch their new handbook, What’s in Your Garden? Noosa’s Native Plants and Wildlife.

The official launch will be held at 11am on Saturday 27 May at the Apollonian Hotel with traditional Kabi Kabi custodian, Lyndon Davis officiating.

Full of information, suggestions and online links to help people create an urban garden for local wildlife, the handbook is the latest project of UWG. Suburban gardens, patios, courtyards, balconies and verandahs, no matter what size, can all become living corridors through the Noosa biosphere.

The handbook contains a wealth of information about how to get started, which plants to select and how to provide habitat for wildlife as well as including many links for further information.

The handbook will be available at the book launch and attendees can also find out more about UWG, a community engagement program for suburban gardeners who wish to create wonderful native gardens for our local wildlife.

More information about UWG and details of how to become a member can be found on the Noosa Integrated Catchment Association website, noosariver.com.au/urban-wildlife-gardens

The UWG program is proudly delivered in partnership with NICA and Noosa Council.
