Beach clean-up today! Thanks to Andrew the hero of the day :) for untangling all that rope which would have disintegrated into microplastic
Good evening all,
Hope you are enjoying this beautiful weather! A quick update on our work session tomorrow. We've made good progress on planting seedlings out the last couple weeks (thanks everyone who has come out to help with that), so tomorrow we've got two options:
1 - beach clean up at a little beach north of Little Dip track. This is a hooded plover nesting beach and there has been a lot of plastic washed up recently. It would be nice to carefully clean that before the nesting gets going this year.
or
Weeding & planting seedlings at the nursery today!
Good evening all,
Just a quick reminder for our work session tomorrow. There's work weeding / planting seedlings at the nursery, and/or beach clean-ups if anyone is keen.
We'll meet at 3pm at the nursery and go from there.
Thanks and hope to see you tomorrow!

Also, we have a fun signage project coming up @ Freshwater Lake, with Kangaroo Inn Area School, more info on that soon.
Today is our second day to complete our scheduled revegetation project at Lake St. Clair: melaleuca lanceolata and sheok (allocasuarina verticillata) seedlings.
Good afternoon all,
Hope you've had a great week. Just a quick reminder for our work session tomorrow. Malcolm and Hillary did some work taking care of the reveg site at Long Gully last weekend, so I think we should head back to Lake St. Clair to get as many seedlings planted out before we run out of rain!
We'll meet up at the FOLD nursery at 3pm and leave from there. And there's work to do at the nursery, in case anyone would prefer to stay in town.
Thanks very much and hope to see you tomorrow.

Good evening all, hope your weekend is going well so far.
With the possible weather tomorrow afternoon, and a number of our group involved in the very cool event at the institute, let's postpone tomorrow's Long Gully session to next week.
Anyone that is absolutely set on being outside - working in the dirt, let me know and we can coordinate an ad-hoc work group!
With many thanks.

Today with planted our own year-old seedlings at Lake St. Clair: melaleuca lanceolata and sheok (allocasuarina verticillata) seedlings.
Good evening, I hope everyone is well.
Just a quick reminder for our work session on Sunday. We'll meet at the FOLD Nursery at 3pm and head out to Lake St. Clair to continue planting at the tea tree (melaleuca lanceolata) reveg area there. Based on direction from Cath we'll also plant some of the sheok (allocasuarina verticillata) seedlings we still have in the north-east portion of the park.
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.
