25.01.2022 Hi all, a reminder that our July Public Plant sale is this coming Sunday 5th July 10am-2pm. This may be our last sale for 2020 (dependent on stock availability)... so don't miss out. Most of our local native tube stock is $2.50. Discounts available for purchases of over 40 plants and fire affected properties. More information about our nursery and our current stock availability can be found on our website kersbrook.landcaregroup.org.au See more
21.01.2022 Have you wondered what happens to all of the felled trees from the Cudlee Creek Bushfire? Here are some examples: 1) Hollow wood was relocated into the fire sca...r as shelter for native fauna (with Kersbrook Landcare Group). 2) Coarse woody debris was relocated into restoration sites where it will break down and encourage insects and birds for restoration of conservation areas. 3) Nearly 170 trailer loads of wood were collected by fire-affected community members who will store it for household burning in winter 2021. . It's all part of our district's recovery. https://engage.ahc.sa.gov.au/bushfire-recovery See more

14.01.2022 Plant Sale Update Due to Covid19 we are not able to run our normal June Plant Sale at the Nursery. As the SA situation re Covid19 is looking so positive we are planning for our July, August and September Plant Sales to run in their normal form (first weekend of each month).... We may even be able to have a June Sale later in the month - stay tuned. At our Nursery Plant Sales you can browse our extensive range of local native species and get expert advice about where and wha...t to plant. If you feel it is necessary to buy plants in the meantime why not try our temporary Online Store. This will be available from 9am Saturday 9th May via our website kersbrook.landcaregroup.org.au As our volunteers are not able to work at the nursery atm we are running on a very small staff. Plants ordered via our online store will be batched and available as soon as possible throughout June.
12.01.2022 The Kersbrook Landcare Nursery will be holding two 2020 Plant Sales at the Nursery (176 South Para Road, Williamstown) on Saturday 20th June and Sunday 5th July.... Discounts are available for bulk purchases and fire affected properties. There are still many local native plant species available. We will post our tube-stock availability on our website kersbrook.landcaregroup.org.au one week before each sale. Come along and select your own plants with the help our friendly and knowledgeable staff. Our temporary online store is now closed for purchases. It is still available to view (descriptions and photos categorised by plant type) - some of you may find it useful to search for suitable plants. Our online store has received a great response and we are doing our best to batch orders ready for pick up as soon as possible. We will contact you when your order is ready for collection. Happy Planting

10.01.2022 It’s Rain Moth time again! These giant native moths are all a flutter following our recent autumn showers, which trigger their emergence from underground pupal ...cases to mate and lay eggs. Have you seen any Rain Moths recently? Please share your photos and/or locations of where you’ve seen them this year and we’ll pass this information onto the Butterfly Conservation South Australia, to better help us all understand this remarkable species.

04.01.2022 This cat killed more than 100 Endangered Bats in a week before the park rangers captured him and sacrificed him. If you have a cat, don't let him out of the house. Photo: New Zealand Conservation Department. More info: http://www.doc.govt.nz//2010/cat-nabbed-raiding-the-mothe/
04.01.2022 Very sad and angry to see what has been happening recently at our precious Bushcare site Stone Reserve (between Kersbrook and Williamstown)
