The Park is on the Cumberland Plain which is now a threatened vegetation community. It hosts more than 50 species of native plants including Acacia Pubescens and 25 species of birds and other animals including the Cumberland Plain Snail.

The Park is maintained by community volunteers and is supported by Fairfield Council. The volunteers meet on the third Saturday of each month from 10am. This is why our visit has been brought forward by a week from the usual fourth Saturday for our activities.

We will meet at the Park at 10am and have morning tea with the volunteers.

For those who wish to have lunch afterwards, we can go to Deerbush Park which is adjacent to the nearby Fairfield Showground.

Travel time from Castle Hill is approximately 35 minutes.

Location of Gumnut Hall

Gumnut Hall, Gumnut Place, Cherrybrook.

Gumnut Hall is at the closed end of Gumnut Place, a side street off Gumnut Road, Cherrybrook. On weekdays this hall is used by Cherrybrook Community Preschool, so on maps it is often referred to by this name. Gumnut Place is narrow and winding, and parking is limited, so it is best to use any parking space you see, and walk the short distance to the hall. Gumnut Road is much larger and parking is easier.
