Upper Plenty Merri Catchments Landcare Group
This is a community project run by the upper plenty Merri Catchments Landcare group to rehabilitate the road reserve through which Dry Creek runs. Plantings are an integral activity to encourage biodiversity and suppress invasive weeds. We hope to expand this program along the road in future years. We don't think the site is suitable for young children under 16. We have the support of Melbourne Water through the liveable Waterways grant and have support from Keep Australia Beautiful Victoria through their Adopt a Roadside Program.
