Bellarine and Geelong

Environmental Volunteering Calendar

Join Conservation Volunteers Australia at Edwards Point Wildlife Reserve to help restore the last remaining stand of coastal woodland on the Bellarine Peninsula. We're teaming up with the Friends of Edwards Point for a day of weed extraction, followed by morning tea and the chance to explore the stunning flora of the reserve.

The Two Bays Lookout provides visitors with breath taking views of both Port Phillip and Swan Bay, where you can discover remote beaches that are home to resident and migratory wader birds. The reserve is a Ramsar site and an international flyway, making it an incredibly significant location to protect and conserve.

Look forward to seeing you there!

Join Conservation Volunteers Australia for a day of giving back to the environment and connecting with nature at Murtnaghurt Lagoon. This culturally significant area for Wadawurrung Traditional Owners provides important feeding and breeding habitat for native fish and a number of wetland-dependent bird species, including rare and endangered flora and fauna.

Together with Parks Victoria we will be hosting a day of weed extraction where volunteers can actively help preserve and protect this important wetland. Followed by a free morning tea.

Look forward to seeing you there!

Join us at family-friendly activity at Lake Lorne in Drysdale to be immersed in the environment. During this event we will learn about the local wetland birds seen in Lake Lorne, will learn about local frogs and how to identify their calls and how to, and why you should, use citizen science apps like iNaturalist. We will also help you to identify some fantastic locally indigenous plants, as well as the invasive weeds that are found all along the Bellarine Rail Trail.

Grab a brochure, booklet or guide to plants and animals while at this family-friendly session.

This event is supported by Landcare Australia Limited.
