Saturday 27th April 2024   

9 am - 12 noon
Meeting Place: Community Nursery.
Everyone is welcome to these working bees / activities which are held every 2nd and 4th Saturday of each month (with the odd exception).
Here's a list of what needs to be done:   (the list will be updated in the lead-up to the day).
😊Our central goal this day is to spread mulch behind the dragonfly shelter and well as tidy up the mulching in front of the shelter,
🌱 As always, what gets done depends on who turns up.

Back to the working bee... 
Other tasks typically include:

Care and maintenance of plants in the nursery (Hopefully some seed trays prepared and cuttings struck).

Tube plants to 'pot-up' into 140mm pots (making them much more likely to survive when planted out in the park).

Seed Collection - Many of our native plants are coming into seed - we need to observe and harvest at the right time.

Maintaining the Karkarook Native Garden:   Some weeds are poking through - easy job if we keep on top of them.

Litter Collection:  A casual stroll through the park with litter bag and pick-up stick.

Tasks for the future include:

• Collecting wire tree guards from previous year's plantings.   (in the cooler months when the snakes are in hibernation!)

• Work on a few bollards to stand them up and make some of them removable / replaceable.

Wednesday 8th May(the midweek crew)

1:30 - 4 ish 

Three or four of us like to get together mid-week to do 'odd jobs' -  finish off what was started last Saturday or make preparations for the next Saturday activity.
Alternatively we may tackle a task at the bottom of the list that we'd otherwise never get to.
As always - all are welcome.
Current thinking is that we'll tackle some repairs to split rail fences and bollards, (Plenty to do!)
