A SIGNIFICANT revegetation project by Bellarine Catchment Network (BCN) has recently taken place as part of a new waterway development in Point Lonsdale.
\nDespite the challenges of COVID-19, BCN planted more than 5000 indigenous plants along part of the new waterway in June-July at The Point estate in Point Lonsdale. The development is next to remnant Coastal Moonah Woodland and Coastal Saltmarsh habitat extending and connecting the area to local ecology.
\nOne of the saltmarsh species included Shrubby Glasswort (Tecticornia arbuscula), which is an important food source for the critically endangered Orange-Bellied Parrot (Neophema chrysogaster).
\nSeeds and cuttings used to grow seedlings were collected from The Point\u2019s conservation reserves and nearby populations of saltmarsh.
\nBCN said the method of revegetation was called provenance planting, which helps retain the local genetic diversity and gives the seedlings the best chance of survival.
\nThe works have been a major addition to the revegetation project undertaken by BCN for The Point, in addition to areas surrounding culvert works at the Bellarine Railway\/Fellows Rd intersection and a community planting site beside the pedestrian bridge within The Point.
\nBCN is a key driver in community driven projects to protect and enhance the environmental values of the Bellarine Peninsula.
\nThe organisation promotes and encourages a range of options for anyone who would like to get outdoors and take action in their local environment.
\nThese include everything from planting and weeding to birdwatching and beachcombing.
\nIf you would like to get involved, you can view many of the BCN\u2019s Coastcare and Landcare projects, videos and other activities at
