october 2002 weeding day. October 13th 2002 landcare day was very successful with a group attacking the cape pea under the cave. There were lots of pea plant seedlings growing in the area where the large pea plant bushes were removed a couple of years back. A great effort saw seedlings removed form the whole area under the cave. It was pleasing to see many natives growing in this area which bodes well for the future if we can keep the pea plant from growing back.more info on pea plant >>
