Aim for this Working Bee:
This month, We're revisiting the Cassia Street Reserve for the third (and final!) time this year to remove the last of the big patch of invasive tacoma tackled last month. Now that we have had some rain we may be able to plant out some of these areas later in the year when the plants become available.

Today we had 10 hardy souls braving the cold for our final assault on the tecoma in the Cassia Street reserve. We managed to complete the removal started on the largest infestation (see the before and after photos below) and to start on the removal of a less dense outbreak to the south of where we were working and also we started on the removal of Cape Ivy that is also starting to make inroads into the reserve. We hope to continue our work here next year because the next few months will concentrate on doing some planting preparation and planting at the boat ramp.
