Black Mountain Weeding Work Party

You are here

Saturday, 7 April 2018 - 9:00am to Sunday, 8 April 2018 - 11:45am

Our next Weeding Work Party will be after Easter;  9:00 to 12:00 Saturday 7 April 2018 (yes, daylight saving will be finished on Sunday 1 April).

We shall be concentrating on removing the young non-local Melaleucas and other plants that have emerged since the occasional rain, so that the local native plants, such as Leptospermum multicaule, can continue to thrive. We will need diggers for that, and I wonder if you have a small digger that you may like to bring along, in case we do not have enough in the car. There will also be some weeds big enough to cut and dab as well.

The details are:
Date: Saturday, 7 April 2018, 9am to 12 noon.
Meet: at the Belconnen Way entry to Black Mountain Nature Reserve.  Look for balloons.
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 10:30am.

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
I look forward to hearing from you, and seeing you at our next weeding work party.

Happy weeding,
