Today we headed to Fresh Water Lake to clean and prune the trail. Special thanks to these two passionate ladies, Holly and Angela! They are pictured below in the sunlight while they take a lil break on the trail and share their love for the woods and stories of cherished childhood memories of connecting with Nature's wild.
Today at the Nursery some volunteers learnt something new while others shared their knowledge as we collected cuttings of Boobialla and propagated them. What a fantastic way to learn! We took just one picture that we would like to post with a special thanks to these ladies that are some of our regular volunteers!
Good evening, I hope you're all well.
Just a quick reminder for our regular Sunday work session tomorrow. We'll meet at 3pm at the FOLD nursery as usual. We have seed trays to plant and beach clean-up to continue!
Threatened Hooded Plovers nest regularly on West Beach! How many did know that? They nest as well on some of our back beaches and on Long beach. Since West Beach is also hazardous to drive on, does not have a through access, and is a favorite walking destination for many locals, by blocking vehicle access here we give these little birds a better change to survive.
Good evening, I hope you're all well.
Just a quick reminder for our regular Sunday work session tomorrow.
One of the most favorite activities for many of our volunteers is to go out and plant trees! How spectacular to then watch them flourish! Today we headed to Lake Sinclair and planted tee trees and sheoaks' seedlings which we had planted in trays the previous year.
Good evening all, I hope your weekend is going well so far.
Just a quick reminder for our regular Sunday work session tomorrow.
We'll meet at 3pm at the FOLD nursery and, weather permitting, we can head over to the revegetation site at Lake St Clair to plant (and replace) seedlings. If we get rained out, we can continue planting collected seeds at the nursery instead.
We had a great nursery work session last week, over 1000 pots planted with collected seeds! Thanks to all who came out :)
With many thanks and hope to see you tomorrow.

What a day at the nursery! Such a lovely group of passionate volunteers have work hard today preparing the trays and planting seeds we had previously collected. Lots has been accomplished today and we all went home feeling good about the day!
Good afternoon all,
Just a quick reminder for our regular Sunday work session tomorrow. We'll meet at 3pm at the FOLD nursery and have a couple options for work: we'll get started planting collected seed at the nursery, and if anyone is interested in a more active afternoon we can continue with beach clean-ups (working south from Stoneys to Back Beach).
Thanks very much and hope to see you there!
