More than 100 volunteers joined Noosa Council crews for the National Tree Day planting event at Bagnalls Bushland Reserve in Cooroy on Sunday.
Bagnalls Bushland Reserve, situated in the Mary River catchment area and featuring Upper Six Mile Creek, is a long-term revegetation site.
First-time volunteers and annual participants came together to plant 1300 native trees, shrubs, and ground covers.
Throughout the morning, volunteers engaged with experts, learning about the local ecosystem and the importance of revegetation efforts and had close encounters with native wildlife, courtesy of VIP Wildlife.
The council’s Community Bushland Care program operates year-round. For those interested in contributing to environmental efforts, more information can be found on the council’s website.
