Friends of Ropes Creek Bushcare

When: Every third Saturday of the month.

Time: 9am to 1pm. 

Meeting location: Corner of Debrincat Avenue and Boronia Rd, North St Marys.

This site is in St Marys near Pat Yates Oval. The Bushcare Group work along Ropes Creek, restoring the critically endangered ecological community (CEEC) Cumberland Plain Woodland. The work helps improve the health of the mighty Ropes Creek, which joins South Creek to the north. The Group is working hard to free up the woodland from being choked by weeds.

Tasks include removal of woody weeds such as privet and lantana, removal of moth vine, cats claw creeper and control of pigeon grass.

It is home to kangaroos, tawny frogmouths and the peron’s tree frog.
