Come join our small group of Australian native plant enthusiasts.   Our group has been active for 30 years and would love to share our wealth of knowledge in propagating and growing natives in our local area.

What we do

We run monthly meetings with interesting guest speakers who talk on a variety of subjects including native plants, ecology, wildlife, and the environment.

We run a small nursery at Illawong Rural Fire Station where we teach members and the local community how to propagate local plants and inter-state natives that grow well in Sydney gardens.  We also run a larger nursery at Lucas Heights Resource Recovery Park where we propagate plants for bush regeneration, and supply plants for free to schools and other community groups or worthy projects.

We maintain a native garden at the Illawong Rural Fire Station which showcases the variety and beauty of Australian plants.

Our other activities include stalls at local community events where we sell plants & cut flowers, and we are involved with  National Tree Day and Clean up Australia Day.  We aslo recently helped build garden beds for the Menai Community Centre.

We also arrange a few bush walks in the local area which is a great way to learn about your local plants.

Visitors are always welcome at our meetings and propagating days.
