Our next scheduled volunteer event is a weeding session on Saturday 14th February, meeting at the Nursery on Hana Udy Place at 9.00am to 11.00am. Gloves, tools and sunscreen provided along with a morning tea and an update on the Reserve afterward. Hope to see you there! Feel free to bring a friend and encourage others to join us and help make 2026 a wonderful year for the Reserve.
