As part of NICA's new "Get Your Wetlands" program, a dedicated group of residents and volunteers from Noosa's North Shore, Ozfish Unlimited (Noosa) and NICA trekked to the North Shore on October 5 to identify and remove accumulated rubbish.
This is an update on the work that this group has been doing. As many will know, we have been weeding and restoring the native vegetation for many years in the Girraween Nature Refuge, which borders the Noosa National Park.
Thank you to Kylie Gordon, Land for Wildlife Office, Sunshine Coast Council, for this recent review of the Weeds of the Sunshine Coast, 2nd edition. NICA would like to thank volunteer authors Joan Heavey and Sonia MacDonald for this outstanding publication.

This article was published about 15 years ago in the Noosa News. It is still very topical. The photographs are by Stephanie Haslam, and pressed specimen by Dr. Harrold
In this issue we look at the Bandicoot and how we can provide habitat for them in our gardens and bush blocks.
This month we look at a weed that is not only an environmental concern but is also a health risk to humans.
Coolum native nursey is a valued partner of UWG. Many of our members have sourced their 4 membership plants from here.
UWG member Kay found this article interesting and useful so she has shared it with us.
Date Claimer: Monday 18th October at 5pm. Come along and hear about some of our latest projects and work shirts and hats will be presented to those regular NICA volunteers who have ordered them.
