Coca Cola staff get direction from group leader Craig Toms |

Teamwork in action, mass planting |
The Kev Hooper Park Bushcare Group, in conjunction with Habitat Brisbane, very much appreciate the contribution
of staff from Coca Cola when they participated in planting and cleanup of
Boss Creek near Rosemary Street Inala in October 2011. The group brought fantastic enthusiasm and energy and worked together
as a team to quickly plant an incredible total of around 1200 native plants! An immense area of creek bank was heavily planted and then watered in with minimal direction from our busy team members Craig Toms and John Maelich.
Craig brought 800 plants to the event but it soon became apparent the Coca Cola team would have them all in the ground and be looking for more, so another 400 were quickly brought to site. These were then planted and all watered in. Even then the team were not satisfied and set to work cleaning up all the rubbish including removing a shopping trolley from the creek itself.

It has been difficult for the small bushcare group to keep up with the weed
control in this area but it is hoped that the natives will continue to
grow, all be it in competition with weedy grass species. The true value
of this work will become apparent over time. Already since the Bushcare
group started at this site in 2009 we have seen the return of native
species of plants and animals including bandicoots and butterfly species
