We had seven volunteers join us to clean up litter in one of our revegetation areas in Badger Creek on Sun 3 March. Volunteers represented our landcare group, Healesville Environment Watch Inc, the Badger Creek Community, Healesville Scouts and Healesville Rotary. MP Cindy McLeish joined us, too. We collected two bags of rubbish, one of recycling, a mattress protector, basketball, and a broken garden ornament (from the creek). Two large piles of Calystegia were removed from our growing plants - this garden escapee smothers shrubs and prevents them growing up nice and straight.
