Help us remove ground asparagus from this beautiful part of Sydney Harbour National Park. The vine-like asparagus fern is a Weed of National Significance that invades coastal and sub-coastal plant communities. It forms dense infestations that smother native species and prevents them from germinating and establishing themselves.
The work involves removing weeds using handheld gardening tools. Volunteers ensure that the entire root system is removed, as well as the foliage. No chemicals are used during this activity.
By volunteering, team members will directly contribute to a meaningful bush regeneration conservation program. They'll also enjoy time in nature and strengthen their team spirit. They'll help us preserve this historic precinct and make a direct and positive impact on the native habitats of the area. This gorgeous location is home to long-nosed bandicoots, water dragons, blue-tongue lizards, ring-tailed possums and green tree snakes.
