Weekend Working Bee coming up


The November weekend working bee is on Saturday 20th. Working bees are a very important part of the overall restoration project. We assemble at the foot bridge at 8.45am and work through to 12 noon stopping for morning tea. At the moment we are clearing the honey suckle vine off the native plants. This is relatively easy work. The vines do not have any thorns and we are cutting the vine leaving it to die in the trees and pulling up the roots to prevent them re-growing. Bring along your morning tea, pruning shears and if you have them loppers (big pruning shears) and a grubber.
