The Department of Water and Environmental Regulation (DWER) has launched a new initiative to support urban greening across Western Australia.

The Shire of Denmark’s Native Plant Nursery is inviting volunteers to help grow and care for seedlings that will be used in future revegetation efforts.

Council has commenced a statutory review of the Shire of Denmark’s Local Laws Relating to Pest Plants and is calling for public comment.

The Shire will spray herbicide in rural and urban road verges in Denmark commencing 1st September 2025 (weather permitting).

The proposal for the Kwoorabup Native Tree Nursery, a project that promises to enhance local biodiversity and support community revegetation efforts, has been endorsed by the Shire of Denmark Council and marks a significant step forward for habitat preservation in our region.
