Stabilising the dunes 1970-2022

The last plant…. and lamingtons!

Whoopee! Planting is finished for 2016. It has been a very busy patch getting 4000 local provenance seedlings in the ground over 7 weeks. This past week we had an excellent Green Army team – a team of young people sign up for a 6 month period to work and to learn all sorts of skills at the same time.

Our planting efforts have started brilliantly!

This year we have 4000 seedlings all grown from local provenance seed (which was collected and cleaned by our volunteers). Two nurseries have grown the plants for us and Town of Cottesloe have paid for the plants.

Photo monitoring

Frauke recently went on a tour with the Northern Agricultural Catchments Council  and saw how others are using photo monitoring to record  the processes that are potentially damaging to our coast. She visited some of the sites where photo monitoring is happening including Grigson’s Lookout near Jurien Bay, Thirsty Point and Seabird.
