Come check on the plants from July’s spectacular planting effort and
give them some much needed tender loving care.
Join the Friends of Mount Majura at the National Tree Day planting area behind The Fair in North Watson. Help remove pesky weeds around the young plants, give some extra protection by placing woody debris around the guards and improve the site by direct seeding of native grass and flowering plants.
When: Sunday 15 September, from 9am to 12.30 pm; come for an hour or the whole time.
Special 1 hour National Tree Day After Care working parties will be held on the first Sunday each month – details are here
