Monthly Field Works (weeding and planting)
We usually meet on the third Sunday of the month at the location on the map to undertake weeding and planting activities within the reserve. We meet at 8am March - November and usually work for around 2 hours.
Volunteers should wear sturdy shoes, long pants and sleeves and bring appropriate sun protection. We have some tools available but we also encourage volunteers to bring their own. All volunteers should sign on at the start of the morning. Any incidents or injuries should be reported to the works coordinator on the day.
The work is led by our Work's Coordinator, who, in consultation with the Town of Cambridge. identifies the area and objective for the morning.
Check out our showcase to discover our work, hear from two long-standing members and understand the significance of volunteering to the community of Western Australia. Video duration: 6 minutes
