North Shore - Zoom meeting & talk: Friends of the Colo - Adventure Conservation

Deidree Noss, President of Friends of the Colo will speak about their work.

In 2000 a group of bushwalkers took on what seemed like an impossible weeding task - to eradicate black willows along the Colo River in the heart of the Wollemi Wilderness. The group soon became the Friends of the Colo and today still are conducting remote area bush regeneration activities in the Colo River and other catchments. Over the past 22 years Friends of the Colo has essentially eradicated black willows from the Colo river system. They are now targeting other invasive weeds in remote areas. Hear about their successes and challenges in working in the wilderness.

Open to APS NSW members from other groups
