We had a very successful planting bee for the McLeay Reserve in Mellons Bay on Saturday June 4.
Our big planting event is scheduled for this Saturday June 18 for the MacDonald Walkway (Mellons Bay beach).
Everyone is welcome so bring your friends, family, neighbours to plant a tree and assist with digging-in grasses to complement the plantings from the last two years.
The MacDonald and McLeay walkways follow a stream for 1.5km from Mellons Bay up to Cheriton Road and Haseler Crescent and Montressor Place. It is a beautiful and popular walk, the first half on a fairly flat well-formed concrete and timber path.
Saturday 18 June, 9am. Meet at the walkway entrance at the rear of the Mellons Bay beach carpark.
Bring a spade, gloves and strong footwear. Postponement date July 2, 9am.
