Rehabilitation of Maribyrnong River Stage 1

This project will work along the Maribyrnong River from Tea Gardens Reserve, Avondale Heights to Fairbairn Park, Ascot Vale. The Green Army Team will enhance habitat and linkages for EPBC listed fauna species and migratory species, control weeds of national significance and control erosion by revegetation with local shrubs and ground cover. Revegetation will additionally aid in suppressing exotic weeds and protect EPBC listed flora species. Participants will work with land managers including Melbourne Water, Parks Victoria, local government, contractors and community 'Friends groups'. There is opportunity to work on a variety of difference sites including culturally sensitive sites, threatened vegetation types and general parks.
