News & Updates

Good evening all, I hope your weekend is going well so far.

Just a quick reminder for our weekly work session tomorrow afternoon:

We've got a track fence repair project planned on the coastal track (at the north end of the park), as well as continued campground clean-ups and revegetation site check-ins... and of course nursery work continues!

Meeting at the FOLD Nursery at 3pm as usual, and will head out from there.

With many thanks and hope to see you tomorrow.

Good evening all,

Thanks very much to everyone who's come out in the last couple weeks to help with the campground clean-ups and nursery work. Tomorrow, we're planning to undertake maintenance of the Lake Eliza trail (vegetation trimming, post painting, etc). And we've also got some work at the nursery for anyone keen!

Hope to see you there, 3pm at the FOLD nursery as usual.

Thanks very much.

Good morning all! I hope your holiday season is going well so far.

I know many of the group are very busy these days but just a quick note that for anyone who is keen and looking for an afternoon activity, we'll be at the nursery for our regular work session today - and either taking care of seedlings or heading out for minor track maintenance walk at Lake Eliza.

Meeting at 3pm as usual at the FOLD nursery on White st.

Thanks very much.

Another great gathering around our work table at the nursery today: we are repotting our 2-year old plants and getting them ready to sell - the little plants are sure happy to be in larger pots and eager to find a new home! Our awesome volunteers today were also able to remove the weeds from ALL our growing new seedlings in the shade house (they are truly looking happy now) and did a great job cleaning and upkeeping the nursery.  Thank you guys, for the amazing work and the great time we can spent together.

Good morning all,

Just a quick reminder for our weekly work session tomorrow, as well as a note about our monthly admin meeting below.
