Everything you might need to know to enjoy living your best life at The Cape
It’s been awhile since we have had a Cape Community social event, so if you’re a resident, just purchased a block or currently building, it would be great to see you all.
Please come down to the Sports Precinct on Sunday October 1, 2023 from 2pm – 4pm. Feel welcome to bring along nibbles to share and something to drink (or not, it’s not a necessity’) and come meet your neighbours and have a fun afternoon!
Project Koala is a community-led ecological re vegetation project to re-establish indigenous tree species in The Cape. Phase 1 first launched in May 2021 and after 18 months, we can see that it has been a great success. Work has now commenced on planning the Phase 2.
We are looking for people/ families to assist with the autumn 2024 planting and on going maintenance (minor).
For more information, please refer to the Project Koala page. If you are interested in being a plot custodian or have any questions please email us.
The Farm is coming along very nicely now with plenty of opportunities to be involved in a variety of tasks. These are always good fun, so come along and join in.

Wonderful social opportunities where many hands make light work. And they are followed by a short info topic and the sharing of a meal at the Pot Luck lunch afterwards – so bring a plate of your favourite food for sharing.
We would love you to come along even if you are not yet a member but would like to help out and see what goes on at The Farm.
Wishing everyone a safe and happy festive season. Check out some upcoming events you can be a part of in December.
All welcome, including young children.
