Community Planting Day at Melbourne General Cemetery

Join in a grassroots community planting day, celebrating half a million plants for Project Cultivate.

Take a walk through the cemetery’s grasslands and help to plant more local wildflowers, grasses and groundcovers. This is an all-ages event, working respectfully in a cemetery environment.

By joining in, you’ll help make a home for local plants and wildlife – you might even plant the special 500,000th seedling.

Meet at the Rotunda near the corner of Seventh Avenue and North Avenue; enter via the Macpherson St entrance.
