Casual volunteering opportunity: Restore a very special freshwater wetland for our community and native birdlife!
On the second Sunday of every month, Grovetown Lagoon Restoration Project hosts a working bee starting at 9:30am and finish at 12 noon.
The goal of these working bees, as with the regular Wednesday sessions, is to enhance the habitat for fish and bird life by:
⋅ planting trees,
⋅ tending the trees that have previously been planted,
⋅ weeding,
⋅ mulching, or more.
Volunteers of any age are welcome to apply. However, volunteers under 16 should be accompanied by an adult, at least for the first few sessions.
Upcoming dates:
⋅ 11th September,
⋅ 9th October,
⋅ 13th November.
