Kahane Lodge Rehabilitation Project
Stage 2 of this summer’s work has been completed, the compost was spread over the front lawn areas in November and mid-December a small crew weeded lawn areas, cut the grass/weeds, and spread fescue seed over the new compost areas.
The plan Kahane Rehab plan can be opened HERE.
NPWS will provide plants, guards etc. for this summer’s planting planned for 9-10 March. Thank you to members who have already volunteered but more help is needed.
It is hoped we can include some site rehabilitation at Southern Alps Lodge - Charlotte Pass over the same weekend.
The scope of work each year will depend on the number members who can assist, the weeding and planting days are suitable for children.
If you can help please email Rod. Peile at rod.peile@bigpond.com or Kim Easdale at kim@easdales.com
