News & Events

The Urban Wildlife Gardens (UWG) program is primarily designed to operate on small parcels of land in areas designated for residential purposes, so it provides urban dwellers with an opportunity to be good land managers on their own bit of land.

Monday's with NICA relaunched last night at the CWA Hall in Tewantin after an extended Covid-related hiatus. Tony, Bruce, Peter, Alex and Richard gave an update on current projects and Sandy Bolton MP presented volunteers with NICA workshirts and hats.

As part of NICA's new "Get Your Wetlands" program, a dedicated group of residents and volunteers from Noosa's North Shore, Ozfish Unlimited (Noosa) and NICA trekked to the North Shore on October 5 to identify and remove accumulated rubbish.

This is an update on the work that this group has been doing. As many will know, we have been weeding and restoring the native vegetation for many years in the Girraween Nature Refuge, which borders the Noosa National Park.

Thank you to Kylie Gordon, Land for Wildlife Office, Sunshine Coast Council, for this recent review of the Weeds of the Sunshine Coast, 2nd edition.  NICA would like to thank volunteer authors Joan Heavey and Sonia MacDonald for this outstanding publication.

Date Claimer: Monday 18th October at 5pm. Come along and hear about some of our latest projects and work shirts and hats will be presented to those regular NICA volunteers who have ordered them.
