We work at Warriparinga, a very special triangle of open space in Bedford Park, a southern suburb of Adelaide, South Australia. It is bordered by South, Marion and Sturt Roads. Entry for vehicles is from Sturt Road, via Warriparinga Way.<\/p>\n

Surrounded by three busy main roads, Warriparinga is a haven in suburbia. Its Kaurna (Aboriginal) name has replaced the colonial name of Laffer’s Triangle, and means “windy place by the river.” The River Sturt, at least 50 million years old, winds its way through here before entering a concrete drain; Warriparinga is now a rare example of a natural stretch of river anywhere on the Adelaide Plains.\u00a0<\/p>\n
[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.5.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.5.6″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”Lora||||||||” text_text_color=”#ffffff” text_font_size=”18px” text_line_height=”2em” custom_padding=”61px||||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n
It is a special place for the Kaurna, the indigenous people of the area, as the start of the extensive Tjilbruke Dreaming Tracks. Over 97% of Adelaide’s original vegetation has been destroyed since Europeans arrived, and most of the remaining 3% consists of mangroves. Warriparinga is precious as a Noah’s Ark of rescued local (indigenous) plants. It is a unique educational resource, and university and school students are regular visitors.<\/p>\n

Our aim is to restore Warriparinga as closely as possible to its pre-colonisation condition. We do this by protecting and restoring indigenous (local) vegetation, acting to preserve Warriparinga as open space, preserving the Kaurna spirit and working to improve the water quality of the river. However, we also recognise the European heritage of the site and some members have, at times, helped care for the garden of nineteenth century Fairford House.<\/p>\n

Reduction of open space <\/em>by urban development on all sides, already shrunk by the Southern Expressway duplication and the Darlington roadway project. The open space adjacent to Marion Road is also slated for development.<\/p>\n Noise. <\/em>The Government refused to provide noise mitigation when the Expressway was duplicated as this is not legally required for open space. Road traffic has crept closer to the heart of Warriparinga.<\/p>\n Damage to the riverbanks. <\/em>Works associated with the Expressway duplication seriously damaged the riverbanks.<\/p>\n Water pollution<\/em> from urban development is an ongoing threat.<\/p>\n Weeds<\/em> such as Desert Ash travel from upriver and re-establish at Warriparinga.<\/p>\n Vandalism<\/em> is also an occasional problem. The Expressway duplication brought an enormous graffiti-attracting wall to the site and spray cans began to pollute the river.<\/p>\n Zoning. <\/em>Zoning (what is permitted to be built) can carry risks to the river and Warriparinga.<\/p>\n Ageing of volunteers. <\/em>We encourage new members to apply, whether younger or recent retirees!<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_cta][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column
