Black Mountain weeding working party

You are here

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

We shall focus on removing non-local Billardiera heterophylla (Bluebell Creeper), Acacia baileyana and naturalised woody species in the peripheral southern and western bushland areas of the Australian National Botanic Gardens (ANBG).  We anticipate that a lot will be seedlings since the last weeding work party.

Meet: 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 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 10:30am (and maybe a surprise cake?)

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).

Further information: Contact Linda Beveridge by email (above) or phone 0437 298 711.

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