Maribyrnong River Rehabilitation Project

Fairbairn Park, Aberfeldie Park, Afton Street Conservation Park, Tea Gardens Reserve and The Maribyrnong Valley Parklands form an extensive open space corridor along the Maribyrnong River in MelbourneÍs inner western suburbs. The Green Army project will strengthen the plantings throughout the park to define spaces, provide more shade for users and habitat for local fauna in accordance with the respective site Management Plans. The Friends of Maribyrnong River and Afton Street Conservation Park regularly undertake works throughout the corridor and will be able to achieve greater outcomes with the additional labour resource of the Green Army.
