Welcome to our Tiny Forest

Campbelltown Council partnered with Earthwatch Australia to deliver Campbelltown's first Tiny Forest in Glenfield's Child's Reserve. This project creates biodiverse urban bushland in the heart of Campbelltown. Supported by Brother Australia, this unique initiative connects community and Country through collaboration with Dharrawal Elders and the local community.

Tiny Forests are developed using the Miyawaki method which combines high species diversity, high planting density and soil remediation. Growth of a Tiny Forest is compared to it's control plot which features the same planting structure, without any soil remediation.
