 National Tree Day 2023 was celebrated in Kongwak on Sat 29 July with a gesture of “love” directed toward the Kongwak Pioneer Reserve.
The “love” was in form of a community tree planting event hosted by Kongwak Hills Landcare Group, part of their "Love your Reserve" Community project which aims to engage the Kongwak community in restoring the declining health of the 41ha patch of significant remnant vegetation back to a place of self-sustainability.

 The Kongwak Pioneer Reserve was given some “love” by some of its smallest neighbours for Schools Tree Day 2023 on Fri 28 July 2023.
The event formed part of Kongwak Hills Landcare Group’s "Love your Reserve" project, which saw Kongwak Primary School students, staff and their families come together to replenish the Reserve with over 900 indigenous plants.
