People encouraged to join group F
ederal Member for Dobell, Emma McBride, is e n c o u r a g i n g members of the O u r i m b a h community to support a local
landcare group. “Since 2000, the Palm Grove/Ourimbah Creek Landcare Group have looked after a superb piece of extant rainforest and wetland in the Ourimbah area,” McBride
said. “If you have a green thumb and a desire to help protect the natural environment on the Central Coast, the group is always looking for new volunteers, and regularly
holds workshops on how to best look after our native environment,” she added. Source: Website, Oct 4 Emma McBride official Facebook page
