Last working bee for winter  – working in Smith Creek after all the amazing rain, May 30, 2019

Past Working Bees:  March 31^st 2019 9:00 – 11:00am at the picnic table.   Tasks include brush cutting, planting ground covers and weeding around existing plants. BYO gloves, wear sturdy shoes, tools provided.

Sunday April 14^th, also 9:30 – 11:30am at the other end of the Reserve, below Stanhope street is the location for the second working bee for the year.  Weeding around plants, planting out small shrubs.  BYO gloves, tools provided, wear sturdy shoes.

All working bees are entirely dependent on the weather.  With this in mind it is a good idea to register your intention to attend on either one or both days by contacting Jan Thompson on 0412 499872.  And if you are able to provide a plate of morning tea, then Jan would also be pleased to hear from you.

If you are interested in volunteering and want to find out more contact Margie on 0409 216251 or Jan on 0412 499872.

You may have a skill you would like to offer and it does not need to be of the manual labour variety.
