With all the heavy rain we have had recently, our ponds needed a bit of work done on the overflow points. Thank you volunteers. The ponds are looking fantastic and the frogs love them. Photos by Linda F
Just a reminder that our Conversation and Conservation morning is planned for this Wednesday 2nd November at 9am. The task will be removing the sleeves and stakes from the plantings in Area 14. These plants were planted by the Fairhills students in April 2021 and they have grown so well and need freeing from their sleeves. Area 14 is actually on the other side of Ferny Creek a 100m or so along Ferndale Road and it would be easiest to meet there. See the map below. Please bring gloves and sturdy shoes. We will have tools and some morning tea. We are not quite sure what the weather will be like so we will keep in touch and let you know if the working bee has been cancelled. 🌿 ![]()
Wednesday's Conservation and Conversation saw us tidying up the entrances and quarry area for our upcoming 21st birthday celebration on October 23rd. Plenty of mowing, whipper-snippering and weed removing action followed by a tasty morning tea and a chat. Thank you to everyone that came along, and to Marleen for the providing the morning tea. This coming Wednesday October 5th we'll hold our midweek Conservation and Conversation morning from 9am till 11am followed by morning tea. We meet at the central car park. Please bring gloves, sturdy shoes and drinking water. We'll supply you with tools, hand sanitiser, and morning tea. 🌿
Just a quick reminder that this coming Wednesday September 7th we'll hold our midweek Conservation and Conversation morning, followed by morning tea.
We'll meet at 9am at the central car park. We'll walk down to the creek to divert a small section of track that is too close to the creek edge. We'll provide you with morning tea, tools and hand sanitiser. Please bring sturdy shoes, long pants, gloves. Our Bushland Restoration Morning will then be held on Sunday September 18th, 9.30am - 12.30pm. We were sheltered from the wind at the Depot end while we cleared a weedy plot of Blackberries, Turkey rhubarb, Hawthorn and Fennel. Rubbish was collected and branches piled to be later chipped for mulch and used as habitat.. This area by the creek has the potential to become a pretty picnic spot. Photos by Linda Fullagar
