Hollows are Homes! Did you know natural tree hollows can take over a century to form?! Along with protecting our trees and planting more, nest boxes are a fantastic way to provide homes, shelter, and nesting resources for Perth's unique wildlife—and you can make a real difference right in your backyard!
Join the ReWild Perth team and special guest Simon Cherriman from the Re-Cyc-Ology Project for a fun and hands-on Nest Box Workshop. Learn about the importance of hollows, how we can support local wildlife in our communities, and then roll up your sleeves to help build nest boxes under expert guidance.
Here’s the best part:
✨ Two nest boxes will be donated to the City of Melville and community groups to expand habitat support.
✨ Six lucky participants will win a nest box to take home in a raffle!
