On any given weekend, in parks and near waterways all over Brisbane, you'll find a dedicated group of volunteers maintaining these natural habitats.

The Whites Hill Bushcare Group meets in Camp Hill on the third Sunday of every month and performs a variety of jobs in this beautiful natural area which is just seven kilometres from the CBD.


The group's activities include tree-planting, weeding, spraying and rubbish-removal. At the August working bee they spent a couple of hours pulling out corky passionflower, a particularly satisfying vine to uproot. Although it was hard work, being surrounded by native trees and wildlife on a beautiful sunny morning makes it all worthwhile.


Not only are the working bees a great way to meet like-minded people who care about our environment, it's also a terrific opportunity for apartment-dwellers to plunge their hands into the earth.


The Whites Hill Bushcare Group is part of the Bulimba Creek Catchment Coordinating Committee. To find a bushcare group near you, go to the B4C website .
