Join us for the last of our four checks this year of a section of the Pyrenees Highway, West of Castlemaine from the top of McKenzie Hill to Woodmans Road. Many hands make light work as we enjoy a pleasant walk along some interesting roadside bush and do our bit for the community.  Meet: 9am

Our fourth and final September/October late afternoon wander to explore our beautiful local wildflower areas will be on Wednesday 22nd October in the Walmer State Forest.  A chance to see the rare Goldfields Grevillea as well as many other treasures.  Meet: In the Car Park north of the Railway Goods Shed in Kennedy St, ready

We’re now well into spring and so wonderful to see the new growth and increasing activity in bushlands and gardens after so many months of challenging conditions. Trees, shrubs and other understorey plants are putting out new leaves and foliage, and canopies are becoming denser. Birds are calling and nesting. Frogs are croaking. Thankfully insects

Our second September/October late afternoon excursion to explore the wonderful wildflowers in our local Box-Ironbark woodlands will be on Wednesday 24th September at The Monk, South of Chewton.  We will enjoy those wildflowers that favour a higher terrain, and maybe even see some stunning spiders! Meet: In the Car Park North of the Railway Goods Shed
