- Friends of Warneet (Warneet)
Warneet friends focus their work on the Warneet nature reserve on Warneet road. The group was started thirteen years ago and have removed a large amount of sallow wattle and blue bell creeper following a prescribed burn.
As result of weed removal, there has been a liberation of a number of indigenous species in the heathy woodland species. There is no need to do any Revegetation due to the large amount of natural regeneration.
They undertake rubbish removal especially along Rutherford inlet and a number of members work in the Biodiversity management field so love sharing their knowledge to the wider community.
The group meets once a month - first Sunday of the month but not during summer due to heat and snakes.
