Thanks to those who joined us at TRACTION Centennial Park this morning! It was a beautiful morning for some bush regeneration at the Guriwal Trail, as we removed invasive weeds to make way for native grasses and wattles 🌱

It was fantastic to spend some time giving back to this iconic urban parkland, which today alone had hundreds of cyclists, runners, walkers and families enjoying some time in nature. If you’d like to join us, our next event is next weekend at Scribbly Gums Conservation Area in Alexandra Hills, QLD. RSVP via 🔗 in bio 👆
