Friends of Edgars Creek
Location: Edgars Creek Commitment level: Ongoing In person or online? In person
Friends of Edgars Creek is a subgroup of Friends of Merri Creek. We were formed in 2007 to restore and protect Edgars Creek between Edwardes Lake and its confluence with Merri Creek. We conduct plantings of Indigenous vegetation in a manner sympathetic to the creek’s unique geology, Indigenous biodiversity and community, in order to increase the area’s biodiversity.
Our aim is to improve the environment for animals, plants and people by planting Indigenous vegetation along Edgars Creek, and to promote local community involvement into the restoration of the creek.
Our ideal match…
is interested in increasing the native vegetation and improving the environment along Edgars Creek.
We want you…
if you have the ability and/or desire to plant a plant. We love people who are committed, like nature and are community-minded.
On a date with us you might…
plant local vegetation from tubestock sourced from Indigenous nurseries and also place guards around the plants. During maintenance sessions existing sites are handweeded.
Catch up with us…
at our monthly plantings between March and November each year (typically on the 3rd Sunday of each month). A calendar of events is published on the Friends of Edgars Creek website each year. You can also join the mailing list or follow us on Facebook for more info.
