About this event

  • 3 hours 30 minutes

Come and spend the morning with us to plant 100s of koala food trees and other local trees and shrubs to increase koala habitat in the beautiful Mornington Peninsula town of Merricks.

Habitat loss is the main reason for the decline of koalas and all our wildlife in general, so let’s do something about it!

This is a great opportunity to learn about our environment and local wildlife, including koalas, while helping us to increase available habitat.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION:

  • We will have a break for morning tea and will provide coffee, tea, milo and biscuits.
  • Please wear long pants and closed shoes (preferably waterproof) as we will be walking through bush and or grassy areas.
  • Bring your own hat, gardening gloves, water and snacks. We will provide all tools

We are planting on private property at 144 Bittern-Dromana Road, Merricks North. You will see our big teardrop flag near the entrance to the property.

Please drive in slowly and follow instructions for parking.
