Create Native Vegetation & Animal Habitat
The land controlled by the Darebin City Council covers 24 ha, the golf course uses a bit more than half the total space, this leaves a great opportunity to create native vegetation and animal habitat.
Trial planting area (approx. 300 sqm) to assess how different species thrive
Nesting Boxes for possums and gliders on the Merri Creek meadow
Community Garden for locals to grow food and plants, learn new skills and meet people
Nature Reserve habitat for native species, ‘out of bounds to golfers’
Bullen’s Wetland would filter out pollutants and provide a habitat for water birds
Upgraded litter trap to Bullen’s drain to filter rubbish from the stormwater
