We were featured in an article in the Richmond Landcare Newsletter just recently. Richmond Landcare have well over 100 landcare groups like ours on their books. They also raise grants to run larger scale landcare projects with a focus on the middle and lower reaches of the catchment of the Richmond River

We finally got a mains pressure tap and some hoses to help us out when we need to water at William St!!!

Some of our teams continued to get their exercise by working alone or in pairs on some sites, including Skennars, Pinnacle Row, Boulders and William St.

Other than that we had an unexpected holiday. The weeds loved it ! Turkey Rhubarb, Morning Glory, Farmers Friends and all of the invasive grasses you can think of had a ball in our absence. The rains were a constant ally, unlike the last 10 months or so of last year and they made the most of it. 

Now that we are back on deck we have plenty of work ahead of us though it has been wonderful to start by planting out the natural areas along the eastern foreshore of the lake.

NB. At the end of May I had received 1402mm  of rain for the year!!
