Coordinators for each project, Beth Buchanan and Elizabeth Dark are heading the propagation of 4,500 plants in preparation for Community planting days between September and November 2000. Volunteers should contact Beth on 9660 1304 or Elizabeth on 9660 6227. Everyone is welcome, no "green thumb" required!.

Volunteers take a break

The design and construction of the signage is a joint effort between Wetlands expert Geoff Saintey, Leichhardt Council and the Nursery. It is anticipated the signage and planting around the wetlands are due for completion by April 2001.

Working Bees are held every Friday and Sunday between 9am and 12.30pm. Volunteers meet at the Nursery in Chapman St, located at the rear of 3-7 the Crescent Annandale.
