Have you got love to give? As part of our "Love your Reserve" project, KHLG is coordinating a community tree planting event in the Kongwak Pioneer Reserve to celebrate “National Tree Day”. And, the Reserve is in need of some love from its community! We’d love for you to join us to get plants in the ground. Dry years have diminished the north/west section such that a critical mass of understory and trees have died back, leaving the forest exposed to further dryness, loss of plants and proliferation of weeds. Replacing the understory, midstory and trees will restore this part of our beautiful reserve to a sustainable landscape and support its plants, animals and birds. We want you, our community, to learn about landcare, love your forest and learn how to give it the care it needs. EVENT DETAILS Saturday 29 July 2023 - 10am-4pm Location: Kongwak Pioneer Reserve Williams Street Kongwak VIC 3951. Parking: R.N. Scott Memorial Park, 1455 Korumburra Wonthaggi Road. Planting area: immediately beyond the entrance. BYO: gloves, sturdy footwear, suitable outdoor clothing, drink bottle, snacks, planters (if you have).
