Saturday 17 May 2025 – please ensure you arrive by 9:00 am
Where:
NightWings Rainforest Centre (2125 Mossman Daintree Road, Wonga, Qld)

What to bring:
- A water bottle (we will provide a water refill station)
- Sturdy closed-toed boots/shoes (if it’s been wet, we’d suggest gumboots or other waterproof boots)
- Sun-safe attire e.g., hat & sunscreen and wet-weather gear e.g., gumboots & raincoat (we know this sounds a little odd, but the weather can be very unpredictable, & it’s been unseasonably wet of late)
- A willingness to get your hands dirty
- Locals are encouraged to bring camping chairs or picnic rugs
RR will provide:
- First aid kit
- Healthy snacks for morning tea
- Hand sanitiser
- Gloves and small trowels (locals are welcome to bring their own if they are new or clean)
- Seedlings
- Pre-dug holes
- Light lunch
- A great location
- Our friendly team
- Overview of the Day
The event will commence at 9:00 am, so we will be finished planting before noon (before it gets too hot).
After a morning of planting trees to restore rainforest and connectivity, you’re invited to remain on site and celebrate – after all, this will be the last Annual Community Planting Day on this site.
Health and Safety
As always, the health and safety of our staff, supporters, and the communities in which we work are of utmost importance to us.
We ask that all attendees register for a free ticket via Humanitix.
Please ensure you dress appropriately for the event (e.g., sun-safe clothing, hat, sturdy closed-toed boots/shoes. If it’s been wet, we suggest gumboots or other waterproof boots, and a raincoat). Don’t forget to bring your water bottle and stay hydrated throughout the day.
If you are feeling unwell or have recently been unwell please do not attend the planting. We thank you for considering the health and safety of others
We’re looking forward to putting trees back on the land with you and celebrating the lush rainforest we’ve planted at NightWings over the years.
