Around 100 hectares of logged pine forest on top of the Mount Macedon range, were returned to public care after being commercially managed for pine harvesting for several decades.

They will will need care and attention of the local community if they are to return to a healthy native ecosystem.

Extreme environmental events, like storms, floods and fires can affect any community. They impact the health and wellbeing of people, as well as the environment.

​Macedon and Mt Macedon Landcare Group, with the support of the Shire and experts in various fields, will be holding a series of events and workshops in 2024, to help build personal and community resilience.

Biolinks (previously known a wildlife corridors) offer a solution for both.
