On Saturday 25th August there will be a special service at St Bar t 's to celebrate 160 years of worship. The 24th August is the feast day of Saint Bartholomew which seems a good reason to have a celebration the next day and invite the Bishop (the Right Reverend Mark Short) to be with us. The Church Society report of 1859 records the beginnings - “On the 15t h October 1859, the Rev E.B. Procter commenced a School-Church at as serving at St Barthomew's. Some of them Windellama in the District of Bungonia to ministered here for less than a year.

Windellama Garden Club Incorporated News June 2019 Rainfall At our place we received another 5.5mm of rain giving us a healthy drop of 60mm for June. The dam is full and so are the tanks. July 2019 Rainfall So far for July we have received 7mm. Better, not by much than 2018 where we received only 6.5mm for the whole month of July. 2016 in July was good as we received 65.5mm. As we are only in the middle of July, lets hope we get some more rain as similar too 2016. For the week up to 16th of July we have had some very strong winds with some really cold (freezing) days. The fire has been gobbling up the wood very quickly just to keep warm. I was looking out the glass doors at our place when we had a decent shower of quite heavy rain but unfortunately the tail wind was blowing so fiercely horizontally across our property that none of the rain touched the ground. I suppose the upside of this rain was the bush next to our place caught it. When I checked the rain gauge nothing was recorded. In our garden After the good rain in June the garden is looking quite good. The daffodils are shooting up and the pansy we planted are just starting to flower. The rows between the garden beds are looking really green - from the weeds! Where we put the black plastic over our future tomato bed has worked quite well and this bed will be weed free when time to plant tomatoes out. It might be time to get the scissors out and cut black plastic strips for between the garden beds. Will just need to gather plenty of rocks to keep the plastic strips from flying away. Now that we have our grow tunnel covered, water connected to it and plants now living in it, we might have a chance to have early tomatoes this year. We will start the seeds of in small starter pots and transplant in larger pots before transplanting outside. We are going to try planting tomatoes this way mainly because as they do, frosts persist at our place up to November. Actually, will try some tomatoes in much larger pots and leave them in the grow tunnel. There are plenty of tomatoes types now that can be grown in pots. The fruit trees that have lost all their leaves will receive their winter prune shortly. All branches growing downwards will be removed as will some of the middle, especially the apricots that grew quite vigorously last year. I won't have to worry about the height as I cut this off in late summer – maybe a bit of tidying up with the height. Once the pruning is completed I will be painting all the trunks from ground level to first branch/ s with a Kaolin Clay wet mixture. This I hope will stop the unwanted insects reaching the canopy. Probably, will need to do it a few times through the season. Kaolin clay is suppose to irritate what is crawling over it and hopefully prevent them reaching the canopy and fruit. Bird Life The bird life at our place is really spectacular at present with at least 10 pairs of Robins in the top paddock, the wrens have returned and the free loaders in numbers are increasing. The free (Continued on page 7)

Cake Auction Saturday10th August Just a reminder that the cake auction is on Saturday 10th August. Gates will open at 10.30am with the canteen fired up and ready to serve. Some of the ways we raise funds at this event is through sales at the canteen, Chocolate Wheel and Raffle tickets.

Donations of cakes etc., will be greatly appreciated and can be brought to the Windellama Progress Hall on Friday 9th August between 9.30am and 11am or Saturday 10th August after 9.30am. Auction starts at 12 noon approximately. Set-up will be on Friday 9th August between 9.30am and 11am, maybe a bit longer and preparation for the auction will be from 9.30am on the Saturday. Help for this event will be greatly appreciated on the Friday or Saturday. Harry Simm Secretary Windellama Garden Club Inc.

With the low price at the farm gate feed is getting too expensive which is further squeezing the farmers in the area so please support them and buy brand rather than the supermarket variety. There were a couple of pyrostegia vines in full bloom as they raced across the shrubs and trees on a property nearby and the huge orange splash does make one envious of the growing conditions. Still they can’t grow raspberries or garlic! Happy gardening …really tidying up in the present season but a few seeds are germinating and lots of catalogues appear and tempt one. Next meeting in August on 15th is still to be finalised but a suggestion was Nirvalley and then lunch at the Loaded Dog as the weather can still be fickle then.

WINDELLAMA ALL YOU WANT TO KNOW ABOUT SOILS

Windellama Landcare has received some LLS funding to run a course on Windellama soils.

Do you know your soil, its potential and its constraints – would you like to explore the possible uses and soil management options? Windellama Landcare is putting together a series of talks and discussions with experts on soils, with special emphasis on the characteristics of Windellama soils. The purpose of the course is to provide information helpful to both recreational Windellama landholders and land managers, through a series of talks with a number of experts and field visits. It is planned to run the course from later in 2019 and early 2020. To help us put together a course that you would find useful and could attract you to the course please let Tony Greville know at [email protected] of the issues that are of special interest to you and information you would like to see covered by the course.

UPCOMING EVENTS FOR WINDELLAMA LANDCARE

Later this year – in September – Windellama Landcare will be joined by Willoughby Bushcare Group members from Sydney, to help with some tree planting. The dates for this busy bee are the weekend of the 22-23 September. The Willoughby Bushcare Group helped us a few years ago at the Chain of Ponds.

WILD WINDELLAMA The publication that should be on the shelves of every Windellama home! These two books are a collection of Carina Clarke’s articles which were published in Windellama news over a number of years. The articles, accompanied by Carina’s black and white drawings of the plants, birds and animals of Windellama, are beautiful and the articles are delightful too. Each of the two volumes has an index. Wild Windellama is $15 for the set of two volumes. Please let us know if you would like a copy of the set - call 0418 412 460 or email – [email protected]

PLANTING EQUIPMENT FOR HIRE FROM WINDELLAMA LANDCARE Windellama Landcare has a direct seeder and other equipment for hire. If you are interested please contact the President, Henry Detjen, on 02 4844 5030 or 0408 601 016.

Page 18 www.windellama.com.au Windellama News - August 2019 CONNECTING THE FRAGMENTS By Kay Muddiman – Media Officer The WIRES mission is to actively rehabilitate and preserve Australian wildlife and inspire others to do the same. However, as any wildlife carer will tell you, it’s one thing to save and raise injured or orphaned wildlife to the point that they are ready to be released back into the wild, but it’s entirely another thing to have sufficient safe habitat in which to release them. Such areas are dwindling by the day due to human development. Habitat loss is the primary cause of decline and extinction of native species in , with habitat fragmentation a related process. Within NSW alone, there are approximately 360 threatened species and 25 threatened ecological communities under threat from habitat loss and fragmentation. Fragmentation occurs when remaining vegetation is broken up into small, isolated patches through clearing of land or the construction of barriers such as roads, fences or buildings. In the past, animals could move quite easily from one place to another in search of homes, partners and food because their habitat was well connected – but not any more. This results in populations of a species becoming isolated in small pockets of land, where they are more susceptible to inbreeding and the impacts of natural disasters like droughts and floods. This can lead to the loss of species from some areas and the interruption of important ecosystem functions, such as pollination and food webs. How can we reconnect habitat? We can reconnect habitat to enable wildlife to move more easily through the landscape like they did in the past by protecting habitat in national parks. encouraging landholders to conserve native vegetation on their properties, controlling feral animals and weeds, planting native trees and shrubs and removing barbed wire fencing. This is where the Great Eastern Ranges Initiative comes in - the Great Eastern Ranges is the longest and least fragmented north -south mountainous landscape in Australia. A chain of core conservation and protected areas such as national parks and reserves dotted along the Great Dividing Range and Great Escarpment make the idea of reconnecting the landscape a real possibility. The Initiative brings people and organisations together to protect, link and restore healthy habitats over 3,600km, from western Victoria through NSW and the ACT to far north Queensland. Our WIRES branch area covers part of the Kanangra Boyd to Wyangala (K2W) Link corridor, which is vital to the long term survival of many species that are native to the Great Eastern Ranges. It provides a natural corridor used by migratory species as they move between the temperate woodlands of the central and southern slopes and tablelands, and the forests of the Greater Blue Mountains and beyond. The K2W Link project works with other environmental and land management organisations, along with landholders and interested community members to restore and maintain this vital corridor. The latest K2W project is the Glideways ‘Petaurus Connections’, which will be launched over two days – at Bigga on the 30th August, 2019 and at on the 31st August. Petaurus Connections will focus on three NSW listed threatened species including; the Squirrel Glider (Petaurus norfolcensis), the Spotted-tailed quoll (Dasyurus Maculatus) and the Scarlet robin (Petroica boodang) that occur in the Bigga and Tuena districts. Landholders and interested (Continued on page 21)

Several had canoed in, one had parachuted in, two had caught the ferry, one arrived by bike and the rest had walked. We all had on our official garden club uniform. This consisted of a nude body stocking with our choice of flower arrangement in the front (what true dedicated gardeners). We all headed to the tuck shop where we all selected our favourite bark sandwiches, sheep drench soup and then sat down for a round table discussion on worms and weeds.

August in Your Garden By Irene Turner

Prepare both the flower and vegetables gardens for spring. Dig in compost or any clean animal manure dig in into the gardens with a generous handful of complete fertilizer and lime per metre. Growing vegetables can naturally be a drain on the soil, we add mushroom compost, plus chicken poo. VEGETABLES TO SOW Seeds;- Carrots, parsnip, lettuce, silver beet, onions, peas. Asparagus crowns and rhubarb crowns. You can dig up and divide your rhubarb plants now. Plants;- Cabbages, lettuce, silver beet, onions, FLOWERS Seeds;- petunias, phlox. Seedling;- pansy, viola, stocks, snapdragons, aquilegia, carnations, dianthus, primula, dwarf sweet Williams, alyssum, poppies, larkspur. Pruning of roses and fruit trees can occur. This is one of the most important months to commence spraying both roses and fruit trees to control many of the insect pests that can do a lot of damage later on. Spray apple, pear, plum, quince and your roses with Winter Oil, this controls mite and scale. Spray peaches and nectarine with Lime Sulphur or Bordeaux to control leaf curl, must be done before pinking of the buds. Things to do this month Prune camellia after flowering and feed with camellia and azalea fertilizer. Plant bare rooted roses and deciduous trees as soon as you can, before the weather heats up. Plant summer-blooming bulbs, such as sprekelia, jockey`s cap lilies and gladioli. Do not trim off frost-damaged sections from plants until you are confident that frosts have finished for the year. Handweed small patches of lawn or use a suitable herbicide to remove severe weed infestations.

Jon was born in the south of England and went to a trade school in Portsmouth where the focus was more on trades skills rather than book learning, so he was taught book binding, painting and decorating including sign writing, brickwork and plaster moulding as well as metalwork and woodwork. He did go on to complete year 12 (6th form as it was then called) then, with a gap year, to a Polytechnic to do a bachelor’s degree in civil engineering. Unfortunately, there was not much work in the late 70’s for engineers due to an economic downturn. So, he took the easy option and went into computers and worked for IBM. After all he had done one unit on using a mobile computer (1K system memory, 1K data memory, paper tape reader and teletype printer) to help with a surveying practical. So how hard could it be? Jon enjoyed surfing in Devon and Cornwall, even in winter, with no or minimal wetsuits, scuba diving the south coast of England and the north west coast of Scotland (still with minimal wetsuits), sailing, and generally being out and about. After 9 years with IBM and restoring two houses he finally saw the light (slow learner perhaps?) and moved to Australia. The weather had to be better didn’t it? Jon stayed in the ICT industry doing a multitude of roles working for both private industry and the Federal Government. Finally, his numerical age caught up and he retired. But during the 30 years working in Australia he also built a house (fixing them up gave him an idea of how to do it), took another degree, did multiple trips around and across Australia in a Toyota Troop Carrier and a couple of Land Rover Defenders, doing most of the deserts on the way, with just his wife, Lyn, for company. There were no backup vehicles, tow trucks, GPS’s or even EPIRB’s (to start with anyway). He also went around Australia with a small group of like-minded people, on old motorcycles in 2000 (what else would you do to get away from the Sydney Olympics?). He carried on with scuba diving, started snow skiing and snowboarding, learnt to fly light aircraft, and bought an old yacht which he and Lyn have sailed up and down between Brisbane (where it is berthed) and Cairns. As flying got expensive, he built a kit ultralight 15 years ago which he continues to fly today. Whilst he has stopped skiing and snowboarding (too crowded and expensive) he water skis and wake boards instead. To keep fit he does a Korean sword martial art and two years ago competed in the world championships in South Korea. Oh, and to fill in the few hours a day he has nothing to do he is involved in building navigation software for boats which is free for anyone in the world to use, which they do by the thousands. Having time on his hands he is now involved in two Men’s Sheds, Tarago and Bungendore. He is also the founder member of WCAG, a small group of people trying to get fibre internet (Continued on page 27)

(Continued from page 25) connections for NSW rural locations, ie and . So Jon brings to the sheds a knowledge of how to fix most things, and a hatred of throwing things out that have simply broken. If he finds things not working he tries to get them going again, or re‑purposes truly buggered stuff to be useful. Bullyology & Health. We are planning a ‘Bullyology’ talk and no it’s not about cattle breeding. The event will be at the Shed on a market day near the end the year. A speaker recommended by AMSA will be giving us some insights to contemporary issues in society and business - resilience, culture, entrepreneurship, mental health, workplace bullying. More on this in the next issue. Membership Fee/Fundraising. Our membership fee is $10pa. We have found many Sheds ask $50 and some request an additional dollar or two for each attendance. Our Shed membership covers about half of our insurance costs and none of the operational costs. We wish to keep the membership fee as low as possible and to achieve this we have committed to run fundraising events. The first event was at Bunnings Goulburn. Members and a few ladies (wives) ran a BBQ sausage sizzle on Sunday 7 July, from 9 to 4. We had 3 shifts of 4 people and exceeded our fund-raising goal. The next event is catering at the Tarago Markets on Saturday 31 August from 8am until 2pm. We will be running a BBQ outside and plan to provide casserole/soup inside the Hall. We need 4 members for two hours each: 8-10, 10-12 and 12-2. Grants (Shed projects). While we have been unsuccessful in a couple of grant applications, further applications or commitments have been made for: solar panels, a patio/pergola on the north side of the shed, two woodworking benches, men's health and wellbeing DVDs and a hazardous materials storage unit. Hi Quality Quarries, have generously offered to assist with supply and laying of car parking road base. The Tarago District Progress Association have also kindly offered to support the use of Village Discretionary Funds to buy materials for completion of our recreation/meeting room. Visits. Members visited the Nerriga pub for a social get-together lunch. Four made a trip to Bowral to pick up a Joiner/ edger and pedestal drill donated by Moira Hamilton of Moss Vale. Lunch at the Sutton Forrest hotel was enjoyed on the way home. Also thanks to Barry O’Neill and Denise Johnson for the wood heater flue materials. Wanted. A normal household carpet vacuum cleaner for our recreation room. Now that you’ve bought that new Dyson, perhaps we can have the old vacuum to tuck away in our, rather than your, shed. Men’s Shed rec room humour. At the 2019 Windellama sheep dog trials how many were found guilty? Once again support from our locals is much appreciated. There is lots happening and we hope to see you at the shed or for info you can contact the Secretary, Owen Manley on 0409 041 783 or at [email protected] Plenty happening!
