We shall focus on removing non-local Billardiera heterophylla (Bluebell Creeper), Acacia baileyana and naturalised woody species in peripheral areas of the Australian National Botanic Gardens (ANBG).
Meet: the ANBG Southern car park. After going in the main gate, turn sharp left, follow road around the perimeter up to the top level of that carpark. Look for banner or balloons near the pay-parking machine.
Bring: Enthusiasm, your family and friends, water (and a small digger, if you wish). Everyone is welcome.
Wear: hat, sunscreen, long-sleeved shirt, long pants, gloves, stout shoes.
A delicious morning tea will be provided about 10:00am
Please book: if you are planning to come, please email your name and phone number to friendsofblackmountain@gmail.com or phone 0437 298 711, as this helps with the catering.
Also, having your contact number helps us to let you know if arrangements need to change at the last minute (for example, adverse weather conditions).
If you need further information, please contact me by email or phone 0437 298 711.
We look forward to hearing from you and seeing you at our next weeding work party.
Happy weeding,
Linda Beveridge
Convenor, Friends of Black Mountain, and
Councillor, Friends of ANBG
