Weeds
in our native forests are an enormous
problem. Unfortunately the Government
is doing virtually nothing about solving
the situation and each year that they
neglect this responsibility, the problem
gets that much worse.
Blackberries
taking over huge areas of our native
forests, particularly along the wet areas.
Bridal
Creeper can be seen here totally smothering
the understory of the forest. Pine trees
can also be seen moving in on the environment.

bushes is an all year round stream.

their way down.
