The Ku-ring-gai Tiny Forest was planted on the 16th and 17th of June 2024 by members of the local community, school children, staff from the Ku-ring-gai Council and Bupa staff members. The Tiny Forest is located on the Village Green at 80 Kendall Street, West Pymble and has been extensively planted with species from the critically endangered ecological community, the Sydney Turpentine Ironbark Forest (STIF). The STIF Forest naturally grows on ridgelines and slopes on shale and shale enriched sandstone soils and provides layers of habitat for wildlife such as the Powerful Owl and the Glossy Balck Cockatoo. Over 33 endemic plant species such as the Turpentine Tree and the Sydney Red Gum have been planted in the Tiny Forest to mimic a small STIF forest to support biodiversity in urban areas and help to mitigate the effects of climate change. The panting day was also attended by Adam Byrne, from Bush to Bowl, a social enterprise that connects First Nations People with Country and their Traditional foodways, the mayor of Ku-ring-gai Council Sam Ngai and Earthwatch's CEO, Fiona Sutton Wilson. Earthwatch Australia teamed up with Ku-ring-gai Council to support the local community to monitor, learn and care for the forest for years to come.
