Join Nikki from Susuro Wines, the lovely people at Westgate Biodiversity and the Australian Conservation Foundation (ACF) Community Macnamara for a Sunday morning of volunteering, followed by a delicious sausage sizzle and wine tasting!
Click here to reserve your spot now and bring a friend too!
We’ll be getting our hands dirty between 9:30am – 12:00pm, helping care for the park and local habitat . Afterward, if you can stick around from 12:00pm – 2:00pm we are having a sausage sizzle to raise funds to support the park volunteer days. There will be drinks, some food and great company.
Sausage sizzle + wine tasting:
We’ll have traditional and vegan sausage options fresh off the BBQ, with ingredients and supplies kindly provided by Westgate Biodiversity and ACF.
Local wine-maker Nikki from Susuro, a unique urban winery, will also be bringing a curated selection of wines to playfully pair with our sausage offerings (yes, we know it’s not exactly fine dining – that’s half the fun 🍷🌭).
Pricing (pay on the day):
$5 per sausage (traditional & vegan options available)
$8–$12 per glass of wine (selection from Susuro Wines)
Proceeds will go toward covering event costs, with any surplus supporting future volunteer days led by our organisations.
