Bushcare in Greenwich

 

Jago St - Foreshore Reserve

Meet at the end of Jago St, Greenwich.

With scenic views and secluded beach, this foreshore reserve has potential to be restored to lovely native bushland. Angophora canopy keeps the site shady for summer and offers homes to local birds.

DETAILS:

Meets 2nd Friday of every month

9am – 12pm

Meet at the driveway to unit block 171-175 Greenwich Road

Gore Creek Reserve

This group works behind 9 - 17 Seaman Street in Gore Creek Reserve above the water where Gore Creek meets Lane Cove River. The group are targeting a patch of weed amongst an otherwise fairly resilient area of bushland. A canopy of Blackbutt and Angophora hug the foreshore with a great diversity of shrubs and ground covers.

Greendale Park

This group works along Berry Creek under a canopy of Blackbutts and gully vegetation. Berry Creek flows into the harbour and forms the boundary of the Lane Cove and North Sydney Council areas. Both Councils support Bushcare groups along the creek who are working to reduce the weed infestation along this attractive water course.
