Plants for Locals

The City of Gosnells is offering residents up to 10 plants per household as part of our Plants for Locals program.

This program is aimed at residents who wish to add some colour and biodiversity to their gardens, reduce water use in the garden or attract native animals. All plants are native, with many being endemic to our region and waterwise.

Plants will be available in pre-selected packs - each pack contains 10 plants that have been selected for their common qualities or ideal planting location. The packs types available are verge plants, groundcover plants, biodiverse plants, trees / shrubs and wildflowers.

More information: Your Say Gosnells

This initiative is made possible by Water Corporation's Greening Initiative grant, and is delivered in partnership with the Armadale Gosnells Landcare Group.

Give our Bushland a Boost

An annual day to celebrate the restoration and maintenance of the amazing environmental assets within the City of Gosnells, Give our Bushland a Boost is a great opportunity for community members to get involved in local environmental projects.

National Tree Day

Sponsored by Planet Ark and Toyota, National Tree Day is Australia's largest tree planting and nature care event.

The City holds a community event each year for National Tree Day and we encourage our residents to join us to assist in planting native seedlings to restore our natural assets.

This year the event will be held on Sunday 28 July from 9am to 12pm at Tom Bateman Reserve in Thornlie.

We plan to plant 9,500 seedlings, so come along, get your hands dirty and have some fun as you make a difference to your local community. Our event is a free family-friendly morning suitable for the whole family.
