The Mudcrabs conduct regular working bees along the Cooks River. These consist of river clean-up sessions and bushcare/regeneration to restore local native habitat.
You are welcome to attend any of these events – no need to register just turn up. We have tools and experienced instructors on-site. We suggest you bring your own gloves, hat & sunscreen.

A series of crushed sandstone native gardens have been developed by Canterbury Bankstown Council as part of the Ewen Park - Lang Rd footbridge master plan. These native vegetation sites run beside the new crushed sandstone walking path on the opposite side of the River to Ewen Park. The goal is to keep these sites weed-free and increase the density and diversity of appropriate native vegetation.
