Our Events – Get Involved

Our Roving Restorer, volunteer bush regeneration group meets fortnightly on a Friday morning.  Typically, we meet at the Maleny IGA carpark and carpool to a different property each fortnight.

We carry out on-ground works (may be either : Weeding or: Tree Planting) from 9am-11:30am and finish with a lovely catered morning tea at the property we are visiting.  It is important to register to find out the meeting time as it does vary each fortnight depending on the location we are going to.

No experience in bush regeneration is required, just a love of the outdoors and nature.  We visit beautiful properties. You will get to learn new skills and meet lovely like-minded people.  The morning teas are awesome too!

We would love to see you along at one of our events.  To register or find out more information email: info@hinterlanbushlinks.org
