SUMMARY:Holding Tight - Linking Springbrook and Lamington National Park
DESCRIPTION:Tree planting to continue the Gold Coast Biggest Tree Planting Day efforts and help link Springbrook NP with Lamington NP\n\n\nThe Numinbah Valley Environmental Education Centre P&C (NVEEC P&C) is excited to continue its landscape scale restoration project “Numinbah-Holding Tight”\, which aims to restore habitat corridors linking Springbrook and Lamington National Parks\, and improve water quality within the Nerang River Catchment. \n \nThis project was initially started in August 2019\, at the Seqwater/Watergum- Gold Coast Biggest Tree Planting Day\, where 15\,000 native tube stock were planted by the community on old dairy pasture in the Numinbah Valley. \n \nIn Sept 2020\, NVEEC P&C became involved through funding from Landcare Australia\, where this volunteer group commenced monthly field days to encourage on-going community participation in this important project. \n \nToday\, NVEEC P&C with the help from community volunteers and high school students\, have since added a further 16\,000 native tube stock to the project and we are looking to grow this number even further in 2025! \n \nIf you’re looking to get your hands dirty\, meet others and contribute in a positive way to the local environment the NVEEC P&C field days are the perfect opportunity to volunteer for a couple of hours every quarter in 2025. \n \nAfterwards\, everyone is welcome to stay and enjoy a cuppa which includes our famous morning tea! \n \nChildren are welcome to attend\, they must be supervised by an adult at all times to ensure their safety and quality of work is maintained e.g. plants correctly planted and watered as per instructions. \n \nPlease be prepared for each field day by bringing the following: \n• Appropriate clothing for working in the bush (long pants and sleeves recommended) \n• Hat \n• Full water bottle \n• Enclosed shoes \n• Positive attitude! \n \nAddress: Gold Coast Model Flying Club- Nerang Murwillumbah Road (type this into Google). If coming from Nerang the entrance is just past the Springbrook turnoff. \n \nParking: Look out for signs and follow instructions at entrance gate. All weather road\, parking will be at Model Flying Club facility. \n \nPlease note by registering your attendance this helps with planning and record keeping for each field day. \n \nNVEEC P&C’s Numinbah- Holding Tight project is made possible by the generous support from Seqwater\, our principal project partner.
