Cheong Planting

Maroondah will not use “off set” planting, that allows trees to be planetd outside of Maroondah to make up the numbers lost through development, so local plantings are a very important part of maintaining our local biomass.On Sunday March 5th March from 9am till 11am at the Bayswater rd end of the reserve, volunteers will be planting, feel free to join in. It a very welcoming group. Plenty of parking, you will need gloves, trowel, hat, sunscreen, holes are pre-dug. If you have never done a planting before there are experts there to show you how.
