Upper Ovens Valley Landcare Group

This event is to plant over 500 native trees and bushes along a one kilometre section of the Ovens River that has been inaccessible for many years because of thick blackberries and woody weeds, These have now been cleared and the ground mulched ready for our planting thanks to our partners at North East CMA and Parks Victoria.
