MidCoast residents are invited to support local koala conservation efforts at two upcoming community events, with free koala feed trees, expert advice, and prizes on offer.
The MidCoast Council Koala Safe Spaces team will host interactive stalls at the Gloucester Show on Saturday 21 March and Nabiac Market on Saturday 28 March, helping residents to improve koala habitats across the region.
Visitors can collect free koala feed trees to plant on their properties and speak directly with experts about how to establish and maintain koala-friendly landscapes.
Attendees will have the chance to win a prize, thanks to the generous support of Manning Entertainment Centre. Winners will receive free tickets to the powerful theatrical production, KOAL.
Part climate-catastrophe, part clown show—KOAL is a one-woman performance for the end of the world. As wildfires tear through Australia, a baby koala, a coal miner and an Indigenous girl strive to hold onto their homes before all burns and turns to ash.
Council encourages community members to drop by, pick up a tree, and take a step towards creating a koala-safe future.
Look out for the Koala Safe Spaces stall and see if you can pick a winning prize pot!
