Hundreds of native riparian trees, shrubs and grasses are ready to plant in the Rankens Bridge Park precinct alongside Eglinton Road, which will create habitats and prevent erosion.
Residents are invited to attend the community planting event any time between 9am and 1pm on Saturday.
Council advises people to wear outdoor clothing, covered shoes and gloves.
