Planting - Riddells Creek, hosted by Macedon and Mount Macedon Landcare Group.

Join restoration efforts by planting along Riddells Creek, an ecologically significant site located at the base of the iconic Mount Macedon and forming part of the headwaters of the Maribyrnong River, playing a vital role in the health of downstream ecosystems. Whilst planting native grasses, trees and shrubs, participants of all ages and experience levels will learn about the importance of riparian ecosystems.

Please bring suitable footwear, sunscreen and a water bottle. Refreshments provided.

This planting location is facilitated by Macedon and Mount Macedon Landcare Group.

Where: Meet us at 77 Margaret, St Macedon.

Getting there: Meet at 77 Margaret St Macedon, a 10-minute walk from the Macedon train station (approx. one hour from Melbourne CBD via V/Line train). Parking available near the train station.

We acknowledge the Wurundjeri Woi-wurrung People as the Traditional Owners of this land. Landcare Victoria Inc. takes inspiration from the legacy of Victorian Aboriginal people, who have produced food while caring for the ecological systems that life depends upon for tens of thousands of years.

Planting is commissioned and presented by Fed Square in partnership with Creative Climate. Planting is generously supported by Landcare Victoria, Bupa and Melbourne Water.
