Our next working bee is upon us and we are spoilt for choice for activities to do! The good news is that we are on track with our annual maintenance schedule. A targeted sweep for priority weeds was undertaken in late winter across all river sites. We also completed planting out 2.4 ha of the […]

We will be planting out the newly created erosion control area at the Bega River Junction Crossing with lomandras (see photos below). We installed bollards at this site on Thursday to restrict the movements […]

We have one last winter working bee until Spring will (hopefully) be in the air! This is a great chance to get in there and give our plantings a head-start before the flush of weedy spring growth. Many of the weedy annuals have now died back, making it much easier to get to our plantings […]

Our accomplishments over this three-year grant are substantial, including the addition of 4000 plants along the riverbank. This includes planting at […]

It's almost time for our December working bee and our Christmas morning tea. And what a year it's been! We have completed our three-year project, funded by the NSW Government through their environmental trust. We have launched our website (though somewhat still in development - but we've already had a couple of enquiries through it). […]
It's time to gear up for our 2025 working bee program. Last year, we made significant strides in enhancing the Bega River's habitat and biodiversity, reducing invasive weed cover, and creating resilient riverbanks to withstand increased erosion pressures from extreme natural events under a changing climate. If you want to learn more about BRAWL's work, […]
