Community working bee and BBQ, Harrisons Road, Dromana
What: Annual Community working bee & BBQ to undertake weed control works in the Harrisons Road – Road Reserve. Plus, this year: planting some native tube trees and shrubs
Why: The road reserve on Harrisons Road, Dromana contains some of the best examples of remnant vegetation on the Mornington Peninsula. As well as containing important habitat for many of our native species, remnant vegetation on this road reserve provides essential links to other areas including Dromana Bushland Reserve, Bald Hill and Arthurs Seat State Parks. These links are essential for the ongoing conservation of biodiversity on the Mornington Peninsula. In addition, the vegetation supports birds that eat the insects that attack our pastures.
When: Saturday 20th July 8.30am until lunch. Meet in the Dromana Secondary College southern carpark. Come for just an hour if that’s all you have – that’s still great.
What’s in it for me?
1] Satisfaction that you have helped to maintain a weed free habitat for our native plants and animals. You’ve protected our environment.
2] To have a laugh and a yarn with fun people.
3] Pick up tips about our native vegetation and eradication of weeds from local experts.
4] Turn up and be eligible for a free bird nesting box, worth $60, or rabbit control gear.
5] Enjoy a good BBQ after our working bee, commencing around 1pm, meet and greet your neighbours from the district, relax, chat about your experiences.
Dunns Creek Landcare provides: Morning tea, coffee and juice with freshly baked goods. BBQ of sausages, lamb cutlets, burgers, tomato sauce, bread, salads & fruit! BYO: other drinks of your choice.
What do I do now? RSVP: to let us know you can join us, to give us an idea of numbers for food: Email: dunnscreeklandcare@gmail.com SMS: 0417 564 599 If you have other commitments that morning, just come for lunch to meet your neighbours. You’re very welcome. Let’s build a community.
Anything Else:
1] The BBQ. If you would like to assist with this instead of the working bee, please contact as above.
2] Bring gloves, hat, boots, name badge, teenagers, and enthusiasm. We’ll have secateurs, dabbers etc. If you have a favourite implement – bring it.

Working Bee at Bernie's - Main Creek Landcare
2024-10-06 10:00 - 12:00 | VIC
The Landcare group is holding a working bee at the Schedvin property on Sunday October 6th at 10.00 am to 12.00 noon.
As you know, Bernie Schedvin, Main Creek Catchment Landcare Group’s guide, secretary and newsletter editor for many years, passed away last year.
Unfortunately, in the past months Pittosporum undulatum has made significant inroads into a section of the previously weed-free bushland on the Schedvin property.
This working bee is to remove as much of this weed as possible, so that the area can be managed into the future by a contractor.
If you can spare any time on Sunday October 6th, we’d love to see you. If you can come, please contact me for the property details.
This is one small way we can support Bernie’s vision for the environment of the Peninsula.
With many thanks for any help you can offer,
Adie Smith
Secretary, Main Creek Catchment Landcare Group
