Needed

Untitled-2

Hi, Community.

Does anyone happen to have a baby gate they no longer need?

Our school puppy needs to be stopped from going upstairs to the carpeted areas and toileting!!

Please text Mel if you might be able to help us out: 0404 043 010.

Thank you!!

Friends of Merri Creek @ Edgars Creek

Hi Folks,

We are planting again this Sunday at the Norfolk Court site.

Usual times/set-up with Ben and me on site earlier than the advertised 1-3 PM time slot.

Let us know if you want to help earlier in the day and we can liaise to make it work!

It's looking like proper winter weather with a top of 14 degrees and perhaps just a shower or two at this stage (though that is likely to change between now and Sunday).

Sunday 15th June 2025, 1:00pm - 3.00pm.
Planting: Stream bank revegetation at the Norfolk Court site.

Hosted by the FoMC @ Edgars Creek, supported by Melbourne Water  - LCLW Grant.

Meet creekside at the Norfolk Court site, Coburg North – access via the gate at Norfolk Court (and turn left; or for the more intrepid, just go straight down over the escarpment!).

This will be a planting of mainly trees and shrubs. See the plant list below. 

Hope to "See you on the Creek!"

Regards, 

David.
