Hello everyone,
The WESSA Algoa Bay Branch alien clearing for May 2025 will be on Saturday 10 May 2025 from 09:00 to 11:00, starting at the Fat Tracks Adventure Trail Centre in Overbaakens Road opposite the Astron Filling Station on the William Moffett Expressway. This will be our first outing to this part of the Baakens River Valley. Look out for the WESSA feather banner.
The main purpose of these clearings is to stem the spread of the various invasive alien species like the Port Jackson Willow and Inkberry, which occur around this area and seriously threaten the sensitive indigenous bush. The objective is to eradicate these alien plants and give the local vegetation a good chance to recover and re-establish itself.
We will provide some tools, but please bring your own bow saw or lopper (if possible). Also bring a hat, water, sunscreen and normal garden gloves.
For more information contact Gisela on 073 124 2045.
We look forward to seeing you there.
The WESSA ABB Team.
