25.01.2022 How do you know if fruit fly has stung your fruit? Look for blemishes and pick your ripe fruit and cut it open to check for maggots. If you find any, seal the fruit in an airtight container and contact the Fruit Fly Hotline (1300 666 010). You can learn what fruit fly look like and how to detect them in your home garden > https://bit.ly/31IGcbw

21.01.2022 It is mesmerising, such an enormous piece of work floating gently above our heads...

20.01.2022 It’s beginning to feel like Christmas in Prospect This Friday would have been the much-loved annual ‘Lions Christmas Carols in the Park’ event in Memorial Gardens. Sadly, this event was unable to proceed in 2020 due to COVID-19. The Prospect Blair Athol Lions Club will instead be bringing 'Lions Christmas Carols to You'. Listen to three of your favourite Christmas tunes from your porch this December and support the charity that supports the community. To participate... and invite carol singers to your place: Send an email to [email protected] to register your interest (and let them know if you’d like to order a Christmas Cake or Pudding too!). They will let you know an approximate date and time that they will come to your street in December. You’ll receive a phone call when they’re on their way to your front yard or driveway. Enjoy some Christmas cheer and thank the Lions Club with a donation to help those in need. The small group of carol singers will maintain social distancing and abide by current COVID-19 restrictions at all times during the activity. They simply want to spread joy this December and we encourage you to join the festivities. Donations and Fundraiser Christmas pudding purchases are greatly appreciated. Christmas Cakes (1kg - $13 or 1.5kg $17) and Christmas Pudding (900g - $13) available via pre-order only. *This activity is not hosted or organised by City of Prospect. For all enquiries, please direct your questions to [email protected].
