Bushcaring at Claremont Reserve

TIN will be lending several hands to support one of Newcastle's longest running landcare groups. The Claremont Reserve Bushcare group have been looking after this pretty patch of near-perfect bushland since the mid 1990s.

TIN volunteers will be lending a hand to do a bit of weeding in the Spotted Gum Ironbark Open forest. This is a very common vegetation community around the slopes of Newcastle and Lake Macquarie so it's also a great opportunity to learn a little bit more about the local bushland, the weeds that sneak in and how to remove them with minimal disturbance.

If you’re interested make sure you've been in for an induction and book a seat on the bus. Volunteer inductions happen every Wednesday at 10am to give you an overview of the organisation and the OH & S issues at TIN.
