Beach clean-up today! A big shout-out to these two regular teen volunteers, Andrew and Massimo, that with their infinite energy have carried the heaviest of debrids we found on these beautiful back beaches.

Hi all.
Just a quick reminder for our weekly work session this afternoon at 3pm. The weather looks like it should be nice, so thinking we can continue with a beach cleanup - working our way south.

I've also got a couple project ideas to chat about at the nursery before we head out.

With many thanks and hope to see you all there!

Good evening all.

Just a quick reminder for our weekly work session tomorrow. We'll meet at 3pm at the nursery, and depending on weather and interests of those present, we can do another beach cleanup, plant out at a reveg site, or plant seed trays at the nursery.

Thanks to everyone who came last sunday, a great turnout and a very successful back beach cleanup.

Hope to see you tomorrow! With many thanks.

What a fun day today at FOLD! We welcomed Emma, our new local ranger, by meeting up earlier at the Adventurous Spoon. We then met the rest of the volunteers, as usual by the nursery at 3 pm, and headed out to Back Beach for a cleanup. We had such a good turnout today (14 people + 2 rangers) that we divided into two groups thus covering lots of ground.

Today we did some revegetion work in the dunes west of Long Gully campground and some maintenance items at the campground itself.

Good afternoon all. I hope your week is going well.

Just a quick reminder for our weekly work session Sunday, and some very exciting news: The new DEW ranger, Emma, has started work this week!

We're going to have a little welcome get together for Emma on Sunday at the Adventurous Spoon at 2pm, and then head out to Back Beach for a cleanup at 3pm. (weather permitting).

Please let me know if you'll be able to make it this week, so I know what number of tables/chains to put aside at the Spoon.

With many thanks and hope to see you all Sunday.

Good evening all, I hope everyone's weekend is going well so far.

Just a quick reminder for our weekly work session tomorrow. We've got some reveg work planned in the dunes west of Long Gully campground, and some maintenance items at the campground itself, (if our crew is large enough!)

Meet at 3pm at the FOLD nursery, thanks and hope to see you there.

Good evening all,

Just a quick note regarding our regular work session tomorrow. It looks like we're in for some weather (a good chance of rain in the afternoon). We've got some beach clean-up to catch up on... or we can continue planting seed trays at the nursery... or we can have a project admin catchup over coffee at the spoon!?

Let me know your preference(s) if you're planning to attend and I'll send out an update around noon.

Thanks!

Roland

Good evening all,

Just a quick reminder for our weekly work session tomorrow. We're planning to meet at the nursery at 3pm as usual and then, depending on interest and group size, head out for reveg planting near Long Gully and/or beach clean-up south of Stoney Rise (or nursery planting if the rain comes early!). 

With many thanks, hope to see you all tomorrow.

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.
