Wild for Nature - Nest Boxes
​
Nest boxes, like natural hollows that have formed over many years, come in many shapes and sizes and are used by different species.
​
A tree hollow or a nest box suitable for a small insectivorous bat is completely different to that used by a large Powerful Owl.
​
Choosing the right nest box for your property can depend on what animals you have observed in the area, which animals you would like to attract to your property, and whether your property is lacking certain sized nesting hollows in surrounding trees.
​
Join our presenter Jay Schieder - Conservation Manager Kumbartcho Nursery, as he explains the importance of nest boxes, shares some different plans for nest boxes and what you will need to do to encourage wildlife to use them.

Australian Plants for High Impact Displays
Some familiar and beautiful Australian plants could be displayed better, while other equally beautiful natives are far less familiar and are rarely displayed.
With a little thought, and a few tips, none are difficult to grow.
All are durable, and some require testing conditions (like dry weather) to bring out the best in them.
Other countries know them and they already grow them.
Every garden, street and park has space for at least one Australian gem:
Let's celebrate !
Join us for a fascinating morning with our mate Jerry and get ideas for inspirational native plant displays at your place!
