The Sustainable Agriculture Facilitator (SAF) supports farmers in the Port Phillip and Western Port region to adopt climate-smart, sustainable agricultural practices.

This ongoing project led by the Sustainable Agriculture Facilitator supports farmers in the Port Phillip and Western Port region to document the biodiversity assets on your farm, take biodiversity action and increase your sustainability and eco-credentials.

This page provides local information on dung beetles for the Melbourne Water catchment. In previous years, breeding nurseries were established for new species of dung beetles to hasten the breeding and establishment of beetles in the region. Many of these sites have been impacted by extended waterlogging during La Nina cycles and we hope to re-commence breeding new species in 2023/24.

Our Housing Statement Roadmap establishes key areas for improvement that will enable more development, faster.

From the Ground Up is a series of eight short films which demonstrate the diversity of efforts and activities which define environmental volunteers across the Greater Melbourne area.

We cut grass across 4155 hectares of land that we own, through our annual scheduled maintenance program.

The amount of water in our environment is influenced by the type of climate. Across Australia, there are six broad climate zones. Climate is the average weather conditions of a place for a long period of time, while weather is the atmospheric conditions (hot day, rain, cool conditions) for a brief period of time.

The Lower Dandenong Creek Litter Collaboration brings together the Cities of Casey, Greater Dandenong and Kingston, Parks Victoria, Melbourne Water and the EPA to tackle litter at a catchment scale.

Like you, we don't like seeing litter being washed off streets into stormwater drains and into our waterways.
