South Hobart Bushcare looks after a resilient bushland remnant of rare black peppermint forest nestled in the middle of South Hobart at Wellesley Park.

They are removing weeds such as gorse and cotoneaster to enhance the bushland values of this area, and have revegetated some of the more degraded areas of the park for wildlife.

Meets: The third Sunday of the month, 10 am - 12.30 pm.
