The wait is over! We are planting again on Sunday.
And as a bonus our first planting of the year sees a move to our new site we will be referring to as the' caravan park site' (see the blue star on the area map attached).
In line with FoEC's strategic plan, we are planning for concentrated plantings and maintenance of feature areas around this site.
We will initially be focusing around the remnant red gun with a poa and lomandra based grassland and are funded to do two further projects on the caravan park site, including funding for maintenance works.
The second project on this site will be focused on a pocket of indigenous grassland that is immediately abutting the remnant sweet bursaria and tree violet.
We are also funded to address the kikuyu overgrowth on the escarpment immediately upstream of the creek crossing at this site. I would be happy to explain these in person on Sunday during our tea/snack break.
Unfortuantely the weather forecast is not great. I'll ceratainly rug up on the day and hope that you will do the same and join us!
The best point of access is by parking/getting to the end of Elisabeth Street. Walk along the footpath on the west side of the road and where the road doglegs to the right, go left down along the fence line and follow the creek and caravan park fence line to the crossing at the rock face area. It is around 150 metres walk from the road to the site. For those that know the way no directions needed!
Any questions - please feel free to contact me via this email address or check the FoEC website for further information.
Kind regards,
David Pavone.
FoEC President.
