WORKS to remove invasive weeds and restore native vegetation on Lorne’s foreshore kicked off with a helping hand from the local community.<\/p>\n

A total of 12 students joined seven coastal rangers to revegatate and revitalise the area.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

 <\/p>\n

The group removed Coast Tea Tree weeds from along the foreshore and replanted Indigenous seedlings.<\/p>\n

These included Stringybark, Mountain grey gum, Kidney weed, Drooping She-oak, Common tussock-grass, Hazel Pomaderris, Knobby club-rush, Prickly currant-bush, Bower spinach, Hop goodenia, Coast tussock-grass, Musk daisy-bush, Weeping grass, Coast beard-heath, Kangaroo Apple and Kangaroo grass.<\/p>\n
