Ballarat Wildlife Rehabilitation & Conservation Inc

We are planting to create a habitat corridor on the property that will establish new vegetation on land stretching between the Yarrowee River at one end and the Enfield State Forest at the other. Koalas have been sighted on this property and it is critical that we get a habitat corridor established for wildlife that visit this area. This project has been made possible by a grant from the Victorian Landcare Grants 2024. The landowner has already ploughed the area to be planted, so that will make planting much easier.

DIRECTIONS

The property is easy to find using Google Maps. There will be a short walk from where you park your car down a paddock to the planting site.
