“Trees for Life” is hoping to renew its popular “Regenerate” program of bushcare in your Adelaide Park Lands in the New Year.
For almost a decade, Trees for Life’s Regenerate program has been bringing people together in the Adelaide Park Lands through Bushcare, nature, culture and connection.
We talk with Tricia Curtis about how caring for nature can also mean caring for ourselves—and why the Park Lands are such an important place for community wellbeing.

that the international LIV Golf tour is financially unsustainable and on the brink of collapse.

Butterfly conservation advocates say a rare Chequered Copper Butterfly colony “will not survive” in Victoria Park / Pakapakanthi (Park 16) if the State Government goes ahead with plans for a Grand Prix motorcycle circuit alongside its habitat.
