Happy mid-September!
If you have any energy and inclination left for plants and mulch we’d love you to join us for one or more of the following three working bees happening this Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Details below:
- This Friday 16th of September, the regular Ida Street working bee is moving for 1 week only to a site just down from Golf Road, north side of the Merri Creek, between Newlands Road and where the Edgars meets the Merri, Coburg. The time for this is 9.30 – 11.30 am at https://goo.gl/maps/gNfExQcxkCgrxkk5A just down from Gold Road, north side of the Merri Creek, between Newlands Road and where the Edgars meets the Merri, Coburg North North https://goo.gl/maps/gNfExQcxkCgrxkk5A Please bring gloves and we will be planting mostly She-oaks into the jute mat that has been laid out on the slope.
- This Saturday 17th of September from 3 – 4.30 pm we will be planting out some beautiful flowering ground covers at the eastern end of Spry Street, Coburg North https://goo.gl/maps/Q6GDGi8ZYdpTpeCS7 Please bring gloves and a digging shovel if you have one, plus some food to share for afternoon tea afterward.
- This Sunday 18th of September from 9.30 -11.30 am we will be back at Coburg High school mulching around the roundabout at the front entrance of the school and also around the plants that went in last year, south of the basketball courts https://goo.gl/maps/eBEwmUnWJQADQAzi9 Please bring gloves, mulching forks and wheelbarrows if you have them.
Look forward to seeing you at one or all of these events and then looking forward to a bit of a rest after them! Come Monday we will have put in over 3,000 plants this planting season, which is a mighty effort. Well done and thanks to all that have helped out!
Take care,
Emma
