Whites Hill Bushcare and Environment Group
We are dedicated to looking after the natural environment, especially the Whites Hill, Pine Mountain, and Sankeys Mountain areas in the southern suburbs of Brisbane City.
Our surrounding suburbs are Camp Hill, Carina Heights, Coorparoo and Holland Park
Whites Hill Reserve is a precious nature reserve super close to the city containing rare and endangered flora and fauna. Our Habitat Brisbane Bushcare volunteers get hands on weeding and planting in the Reserve and our walking group hold Sunday guided walks regularly spotting koalas and other native wildlife.

Pine Mountain Quarry Redevelopment
Pine Mountain Quarry is end of life and Brisbane City Council have a Vision for it's future use. Unfortunately, as of yet, they haven't told us what this vision is.
To ensure that our local community knew what was happening and were able to have a say we organised some public information sessions in June 2024 and asked for feedback from attendees on what they wanted to see in their backyard. Following this we analysed the feedback, formed a petition and encouraged people to sign it. The petition asked council to ensure that the Community would be informed and consulted on any future plans. (Petition Wording)
As of December 2024, even after a couple of requests for any plans, we have heard nothing.
