Whittlesea Community Connections (WCC) is an independent, community-based organisation that works alongside the community to develop programs and services that respond to community needs.

WCC’s vision is for a Whittlesea in which people and agencies work together to make a positive difference to their community, ensuring that everyone has equal access to the community’s resources and services. The organisation’s objectives are to promote access and equity by addressing disadvantage and by increasing prospects for community participation.

Nugal biik plants and seeds is a Wollert based production nursery specialising in indigenous flora of the greater northern region of Melbourne. Proudly climate positive, the nursery operates as a social enterprise, supporting local First Nations initiatives and conservation activities.

The nursery is situated at our Wollert Community Farm, an environmental education hub and local food system that aims to restore nature and ensure that local community members can live and eat well.





The native nursery volunteer program is year round with greater need during the peak production months of the year – from October to April. Volunteers will contribute to nursery operations and production processes through engaging in hands-on tasks that may vary according to seasonal needs.
