Potato Point CoastcarePotato Point Coastcare group formed recently following a Bushcare Training session conducted byPeter Gow in February. Potato Point Coastcare Group meets on the 4th Tuesday of each month withthe aim to care for the bushland reserves along the Potato Point Headland, Jemisons Beach andPotato Beach targeting noxious and environmental weed infestations.Potato Point Coastcare group
Rosedale LandcareSuccesses:-The main burden has been born by a small number of unsung, dedicated folk who regularlyattend to selected areas and nip things in the bud on their walks around the precinct.A small number of organised working bees were attended by a small number of individuals.Two bush regeneration workshops were run by ELMCThe Envirofund grant was used to hire contractors for a massive weeding program on our BanksiaFlat Reserve during <strong>2009</strong>.The weeding pressure was kept up for the remainder of the year by the same contractor paid outof community funds.To all outward appearances the precinct is in reasonably good shape.Challenges:-Rosedale Landcare has been relatively inactive for most of the past year due to the absence ofour Coordinator and no one to fully stand in for him. We expect him to return to duty soon.We have been unable to give much attention to our other major project: landscaping andmaintenance of the public carpark.There are patches of different weeds at locations across the Hamlet that have been relativelybenign for some time but have not yet reached explosion level which could be achieved at anytime. Most worrying are asparagus vine and its close relative, bridal creeper.Autumn progresses but so far we have been unable to detect any rust infection on bridal creeperwithout which in this coming year, Rosedale Landcare has a problem on its hands if BridalCreeper continues to spread.In the forthcoming year we hope to be able to mount working bees in school holidays and we areurging parents to get young people involved and acquaint them with the need to keep ourbushland healthy as well as how go about it.Keen Rosedale Landcarers
