Mt Gravatt Environment Group Restoration and strengthening Mt Gravatt Conservation Reserve and linking to Bulimba Creek Catchment habitats. Why a whole of community focus?

Our Vision:
Mt Gravatt Conservation Reserve is the heart of a special community. Indigenous and European histories both have strong links with the mountain. Although it has been farmed, harvested for timber and increasingly isolated by suburban development over one hundred years, the mountain still supports the most amazing diversity of plant and animal life. This ecological and cultural landmark

exists just ten kilometres from the CBD of the fastest growing city in Australia. Restoring and strengthening the ecosystems of the mountain and its corridors, will have positive community and environmental outcomes, and is increasingly urgent as the population in the area grows. Mt Gravatt Environment Group is already working to actively engage the whole community in consolidating healthy habitat areas and reducing habitat isolation with wildlife links. Wildlife does not recognise human created property boundaries or roads. Effective habitat consolidation and linking requires co-operation of a diverse range of property owners - private, corporate, local/state/federal government, community groups, schools and university. Therefore, a key part of our strategy is to identify investments in the environment that also deliver excellent community and business outcomes.

Mt Gravatt High School “Bird Bee Butterfly” garden: building community and habitat for wildlife.

By: Laurie Deacon Laurie and her multi-gen team "I'd like to just say a huge thank you for all your wonderful efforts and care for our natural environment. I can only imagine what a bare and dusty patch of earth that space would be without your love and care. It's wonderful how you also bring together a community (young and old) that strives toward a positive common goal and comes together, in action, to be part of something bigger than themselves....
