Weekly GroCentre Sessions
It’s Djeran, so the rains will be increasing. We have filled the benches, and are now finishing up in preparation for the planting season. We run weekly sessions at our Ascot nursery to keep all the plants healthy, propagate seeds, maintain the racks and prepare for future plantings. Come along and help out, learn skills and contribute new ones. Get in touch if this sounds like something you’d like to do. No need to commit every week.

Donate your Containers for Change to us!
BPG now has a code so that you can choose to donate your ‘Containers for Change’ money when you recycle at the Moojebing Street Exchange Depot in Bayswater. This will help us continue our work revegetating Bassendean's reserves and foreshores. More information here.
Nature Conservancy
restoring habitats in Bassendean
The Nature Conservancy, with the assistance of BPG, has installed coir matting along part of the riverbank to restore habitat that will encourage the Black Pygmy Mussels to thrive again in the Derrbarl Yerrigan. Read more about this in post below. Opportunities will arise to monitor the matting as 1000s of tiny mussels spat begin to grow over the coming months.
