About the Program
Gardens for Wildlife is a free program for City of Darwin residents, schools and community groups who are interested in creating habitat for native wildlife in their space. The program contributes to increasing wildlife corridors across Darwin and local understanding and appreciation of our unique environment and species.
Why Join?
Gardens for Wildlife helps connect the Darwin community to our local environment by providing residents, schools and community groups with resources and advice to help create wildlife-friendly gardens that support our urban forest.
As a Gardens for Wildlife member, you will receive:
- an initial garden visit to survey your garden, provide recommendations and answer any questions you have about native gardening and creating habitat
- a starter pack including a Gardens for Wildlife fence sign, Creating Habitat for Darwin Gardens booklet, voucher for six native plants and other helpful resources
- newsletters with relevant local news, events and gardening tips
- invitations to Gardens for Wildlife events, including talks and workshops with local flora and fauna experts
Your involvement will also help us to understand what wildlife is present across Darwin's urban gardens.
