Unearth strategies and techniques to protect your home from an ember attack, develop localised planting plans, interact with firewise and waterwise plant species, discover recommended mulch types, and much more.
This presentation includes a walk through the City’s own waterwise demonstration garden, created in partnership with The Forever Project in 2023. Children must be supervised by a parent or guardian.
