| Summary: | Gippsland’s National Parks have recently acquired a large amount of ex-farming land in key habitat areas. This provides a fantastic opportunity to work on a variety of important habitat types at scale, increasing vegetation extent and connectivity. Priority areas include The Gippsland Lakes (including wetlands & River Red Gum forests), Cape Liptrap Coastal Reserve’s Heathlands and Coastal Dune Scrub and the Mitchell Rivers Eucalypt Forests, woodlands and riparian tributaries. Parks Victoria will undertake planning prior to works, and maintenance post works. Revegetation on Parks Victoria land is not only an environmental priority, but can be undertaken efficiently via use of direct seeding in most areas. There is also the potential to provide some community activities such as seed collection. |
