Merri Creek Management Committee and Friends of Merri Creek are holding a planting event at the end of Jukes Rd, near Merri Creek this weekend. Much of the creek vegetation has been assisted by regular plantings over the last 50 years to restore a semblance of native habitat along the creek corridor.
You are invited to join this ‘Habitat Heroes’ planting on Sunday 23rd August.
Planting, walks & free BBQ
including Vegetarian and Halal food
