There are very few public places in the Inner West with an unobstructed view of the span of the Sydney Harbour Bridge despite its close proximity, but here's one of them - at the very end of the Balmain peninsular. That's Millers Point in the foreground; once a shipping and industrial area, re-vegetated in 2003 and converted to parkland, preserving Sydney Sandstone landmarks from the early 19th century. On the down side, social housing was also controversially sold off with the deliberately run-down old terrace houses converted to private multi-million dollar über-lux apartments behind the restored original facades. They called gentrification on steroids "progress". Balmain.

Establishing a prairie over the course of 15 years in Wisconsin. Trails of burning field in early spring, clearing buckthorn and allowing wildflowers and grasses to take hold, a very interesting and temporal system.

Past damage has left many meadows at Mount Rainier in a state of repair.

Our revegetation team works on projects that can take years to actualize. To repair damaged areas, the seeds of native plants are collected and grown over the winter. The following season, the plants will be placed at the site from which the seeds were collected. Usually, the work doesn’t end there. With weather and other factors, the team may return for several years to water the plants and ensure their success.

Depending on how accessible a location is, this can be a time-consuming task. Luckily, with the help of volunteers, some aspects of their job are eased with extra hands. Their work is a reminder of the long-lasting impact we have on our environment, with meadow recovery continuing for years to come.
