Happy New Year from Save Our Waterways Now (SOWN) Enoggera Catchment Bushcare!
SOWN's home is Enoggera Creek and its tributaries Ithaca and Fish Creeks. Enoggera creek runs from Mt Nebo to the Brisbane River, at the Albion rail bridge it changes name to Breakfast Creek. Ithaca Creek flows from below the TV towers on Mt. Coot-tha to merge with Enoggera Creek not far from Bancroft Park in Kelvin Grove. Fish Creek is spring fed arising in the Gap and joining Enoggera Creek near Walton Bridge. Sown is active in many sites throughout the catchment with regular bushcare activities, which you can participate in, our activities restore the environment and help fight climate change.
