What wonderful rain we've had recently, setting the stage for the cooler and generally drier months ahead. Our April working bee is just around the corner, and we'll be heading to Site 2 – our old bamboo site. We'll revisit the 200 seedlings we planted back in December 2023 to ensure they're getting the care […]

With last week’s generous rainfall, the Bega River reached a low flood level—just enough to cause some bank erosion in places, but thankfully not enough to damage our plantings. Phew! The upside? The soil profile is now moist and the groundwater nicely recharged, creating ideal conditions for our plantings to thrive through the winter. We […]
Weather permitting (I am watching this easterly low coming in...) we will be going back to the southern side of Spenco Lagoon, meeting at the northern end of Gipps St at 9.30 am. Because of the work we have done, this area is looking good -quite the place for a relaxed morning tea looking over […]
We’re heading back to Site 5 for our next Landcare working bee, and we’d love your help!

Our November working bee is almost here! The turnaround feels quick after October’s bee, thanks to the long weekend. What a fantastic effort last time—250 seedlings planted and well watered, with a little followup rain to help them along. This month, we’re heading back to Sites 4 and 5, the focus of our Environmental Trust […]

Our April working bee is just around the corner. However, as Easter Monday falls on our usual working bee date, we’ll be postponing the event by one week. For our next working bee, we’ll be heading to Site 2 — the former bamboo site. This area was once an impenetrable thicket of highly invasive bamboo, […]
