FoEL Garden Bed Weeding

  • Edwardes Lake Griffiths Street Reservoir, VIC, 3073 Australia (map)

It's that time again... and we need your help! Let's get weeding!


On Sunday 19th May @ 9.00am - 12.30pm we will be rolling up our sleeves to get rid of the weeds! Meet Point will be at the notice board between the bridge and playground Griffiths St, Reservoir. If you arrive late we will be in the Friends of Edwardes Lake Bed which is located between the lake and athletic field. Walk south along the path from the slide and you’ll find us.


We will be providing a quick run-down of the tasks, some weeding 101 tips and be able help with Weed ID.


If you do wish to participate in the weeding, please ensure that you;



1. Bring your own gloves
2. Wear suitable sturdy, closed toed shoes, long sleeves and long pants. A must for weeding!
3. Are sun smart with a hat, protective clothing and sunscreen
4. Register your details via the QR Code when you arrive (name and phone number etc.)
5. Do not enter tall grass. Tall grass can hold hidden dangers such as holes and snakes. You may also risk stepping, crushing and possibly killing smaller reptiles and amphibians who may call the tall grass home
6. Remember to take before and after photos of the areas you weed!
7. Bring your can-do attitude


All ages and abilities welcome! There is no expectation to stay for the length of time you wish to weed for, every bit helps!
