Orange Biodiversity Month is a month-long celebration of biodiversity in the Orange region, held in September.
This year we’re celebrating biodiversity wherever it occurs; in your backyard, your local parks or on your farm - in the day and in the night.
Check out the list of events below and make sure you tell your friends.
- Biodiversity in backyards - Sunday 1 September
- Wildlife spotlighting at Gosling Creek - Friday 6 September
- Wildlife spotlighting at Orange Botanic Gardens - Friday 20 September
- Great Southern Bioblitz at Lake Canobolas - Saturday 21 September
- Biodiversity matters: Harness natural capital for a better future - Tuesday 24 September
We're also working with local schools to create 'Buzzing Bees' - a native bee-inspired artwork at the Orange Cultural Precinct. Not only will you be able to see the artwork, but you can pose with it too. You’ll need to be quick – it’s temporary, so will only last a few weeks.
No need to book to pose with the buzzing bees. The Cultural Precinct is freely accessible to the public and located on Byng Street opposite Robertson Park. Check out Orange Regional Museum’s Animal Kin exhibition while you’re there.
Orange Biodiversity Month is brought to you by a unique collaboration of community, industry, and government partners including:
- Local Land Services
- Orange City Council
- NSW Biodiversity Conservation Trust
- Central Tablelands Landcare
- Orange Field Naturalist and Conservation Society
- Environmentally Concerned Citizens of Orange.
