Perhaps the drought has made us more aware than usual about all things environmental, but regardless of the reason, it was fantastic to see so many people attend the Greening Australia fundraiser in November.
As well as raising awareness for the plight of the Coliban River, an auction on the night ensured that much needed funds were raised for the River Recovery Program. Money raised on the evening will enable critical on-ground works to be carried out, including the protection of existing river bank vegetation, weed control and removal, habitat improvement and erosion control.
