Wurundjeri Cultural and Indigenous Plant 'Walkshop'

Join us for a Wurundjeri Cultural and Indigenous Plant ‘Walkshop’ with Googar, Wurundjeri Cultural Educator and new Narrap Ranger Jack George, along Edgar’s Creek in Coburg North.

Learn about Wurundjeri Culture on Edgar's Creek, explore its deep connections to Traditional Owners, discover local Indigenous plants and their traditional uses, and understand the importance of this living cultural and ecological landscape. Together, we’ll explore how we can care for and restore this special waterway, honouring its cultural heritage and protecting it for future generations.
