Merri Murnong activity this coming Saturday 2/12 - 1-3 pm
Last activity at the Murnong Patch for 2017: gentle wandering to check what is happening and to collect seeds.
After the amazing Murnong Gathering 2017 (check out the pix on our FB https://www.facebook.com/pg/meccarg/photos/?tab=album&album_id=1991970127727107 ), our last planned activity is this Saturday 1 to 3 pm; meet at 1 pm near the wooden bench across from 103 Connolly Avenue near the Merri Trail.
The forecast is for a mild 20 o C; do bring a hat and wear sunscreen though once we’ll have collected seeds and thatch plus checked out our site, we may go keep on to the confluence where some of last year’s collection went. It could be a lovely meander along the Merri.
Spoiler alert: one of the exciting things happening is post-ecological fire native grass sprouting! It was, is and will be an important sight to Indigenous culture,,, and hopefully, to all of us in the future.
We will no longer be doing 1st Saturday of the month next year so stay tuned for more news soon.
