AN Environmental Sustainability grant will help part-fund a planting program that aims to aid the long-term survival of the local koala population.<\/p>\n

The City of Greater Geelong has given $9000 to not-for-profit organisation the Koala Clancy Foundation to help create an indigenous tree corridor between the You Yangs and Little River.<\/p>\n

The community-driven program plans to plant more than 3000 grassy woodland trees and shrubs along privately owned farmland near Little River.<\/p>\n

Koala Clancy Foundation president Janine Duffy said the effort would help koalas move into the area along the river to provide relief in times of heat stress such as drought or bushfire.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis project is especially critical given the impact of climate change and the likelihood that koala habitat away from waterways will become increasingly dry,\u201d Ms Duffy said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve been lucky to find a landowner willing to provide a broad corridor, allowing us to convert a large area of farmland into grassy woodland.\u201d<\/p>\n

City of Greater Geelong\u2019s Cr Kylie Grzybek said the organisation was doing amazing work and was only too happy to support it.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe You Yangs and surrounds are home to many precious and endangered native plants and animals, and it\u2019s just so important that we do what we can to help them survive and thrive into the future,\u201d Ms Grzybek said.<\/p>\n
