Our community is invited to come together for a very special community planting day in Epping, where we will help create Epping’s first Tiny Forest!
This unique urban forest will be densely planted with indigenous shrubs and plants, creating a thriving habitat for small birds, insects and other local wildlife. More than simply adding greenery to our neighbourhood, the Tiny Forest has been designed to encourage people to connect with nature and experience the benefits of biodiversity in an urban setting.
It will be a wonderful opportunity to get outdoors, get our hands into the soil and work alongside fellow community members to create something that will benefit both people and nature for years to come.
- Where: Edgars Creek Central Reserve, Gammage Boulevard end, Epping
- When: Saturday, 26 September 2026
- Time: 10 am to 12 noon.
Everyone is welcome to join this hands on community planting day. Come along, bring your enthusiasm and help us turn a small patch of urban space into a thriving little forest!
