The Hobart Rivulet Bushcare group is our youngest Bushcare group and is a reflection of just how much locals love this waterway.

Volunteers are helping to restore the Hobart Rivulet from the city centre to the foot of kunanyi / Mt Wellington and encouraging healthy habitat for our iconic platypus and other wildlife.

Once an important source of drinking water for the Mouheneener Aborigines, and later for the first European settlers, the Hobart Rivulet is now a popular recreation area for residents.

Hobart Rivulet Bushcare will be working to reduce the impacts of weeds on this important waterway.

Meets: Second Sunday of the month, 2 - 4.30 pm.
