16th of March – The LLC hosted an event with the Platypus Landcare in the Hills group, focusing on the theme, riverbank restoration. The weeding sessions began with some primary weed control works at a landholder's property in Dural focusing on lantana which was encroaching on the good bush. The attendees managed to remove a substantial amount in the short timeframe we were allowed due to the bad weather. After our weed control session, the LLC held a presentation explaining, what is a riparian corridor? Why are they so important? Why does platypus need a healthy riparian zone? What can we do to restore or repair our riparian zones? The attendees then got to take a bunch of endemic native plantings home (provided by Bidjiwong Community Nursery to plant in the riparian zones and surrounds, on their land. This event, run by the Connecting Outdoors program, was hosted by Hawkesbury-Nepean Landcare Network and made possible by funding from the Western Sydney Primary Health Network (WSPHN). WSPHN is operated by WentWest Ltd.
