Sunbury Earth Rings - Revegetation, Weed Management and Community Engagement

Brief description

This project will facilitate habitat restoration and cross-cultural mentoring between the Wurundjeri (Narrap) Indigenous Environmental Management Team and experts in NRM, to restore Box-Ironbark forest at the Sunbury Earth Rings Reserve, an Aboriginal cultural heritage site. The project will include: community planting and engagement, rabbit exclusion fencing, and strategic environmental weed mapping, planning and control over the 11 ha property. Planted areas will be designed as a seed source for future restoration works and the project will build the capacity of Indigenous land managers in on-ground restoration, monitoring, mapping, community event, and project planning and implementation, while delivering strategic restoration outcomes.
