The Davis St Bushcare site is located between Davis St, Dulwich Hill and the Waratah Mills light rail stop Dulwich Hill. This Bushcare site was created by the Inner West environment Group with the support of council. This site affords volunteering opportunities for peaceful hand weeding as well as a sloped embankment for those looking for a challenge. This site has been cared for by Bushcare volunteers for over 15 years however recent developments at this site provide a unique opportunity to be involved in the rehabilitation of a degraded natural area as it is returned from wasteland to wonderland. The potential of this site cannot be overstated.

Volunteers will help maintain this pocket of bushland, focusing on weed control, mulching and planting new native trees, shrubs and groundcovers.

Bushcare runs on the 3rd Sunday of the month from 9:30am - 12:30pm. Tool belts, training and morning tea is provided, and you will work under the guidance of a qualified bush regenerator.

We meet next to the Waratah Mills light rail station, on the Davis Street Side (between Weston Street and Davis Street). You can copy and paste these coordinates into Google Maps for the exact location -33.899179, 151.140196
