| Tamar River |
A misplaced belief that "the waters shall take it away" is a common problem along the Tamar River (as well as elsewhere !)
Garden waste shoved into culverts and creeks instead of at the tip and green waste recycling venues (if only they were free and not deterring in the fees !)
Damage to native vegetation communities, contamination, fauna hazards and weed spread is common along the Tamar River because of this lazy thoughtlessness
Sometimes it does yield useful finds though in the form of
edible and useful "weed" species

| Asparagus (and blackberries) by a creek to the river |
This week we found a nice batch of asparagus
and some Wormwood (Artemisia) ready to pick and add to moth repellent sachets.
