Get involved - caring for nature
There are many ways you can help protect native flora and fauna in our City. You can join a volunteer group to care for bushland or create habitats in parks or your own garden.
Adopt a site or join a group to regenerate bushland sites in the City Tea Tree Gully.

The group started in the late 1990s in Valley View to restore the woody grasslands along Dry Creek in Adelaide’s north-eastern suburbs. Their goal is to bring back wildflowers, grasses, butterflies, and birds.
Activities include:
- planting
- habitat restoration
- weed control
- rubbish removal
- wildlife monitoring
- community engagement.
Recently, this group has been working on the Superb Fairy-wren Habitat Project at Kingfisher Reserve.
