Mundy Creek Natureway Regeneration Project

Mundy Creek Natureway Regeneration Project Our goal is to preserve, regenerate and maintain the ecological and cultural values of Mundy Creek, Garbutt.

We work voluntarily and collaboratively with community, Townsville City Council, Coastal Dry Tropics Landcare Inc to achieve these goals. This is a multi-disciplinary (arts, environment and cultural heritage), site-specific, community initiative project. It is also an official Landcare site through Coastal Dry Tropics Landcare Inc. https://www.cdtli.org.au/

The project area:
- is on Gurambilbarra Wulgurukaba land
- is part of the Greater Town Common
- lies between Lockheed Street, Garbutt and south of the Airport / Old Common Road
- is mostly on Townsville City Council road reserve
- contains riparian plantings on the western bank that are maintained by community volunteers
- includes the waterways and the land on both sides of the creek
- has expansive views to the surrounding ranges and the adjacent grassland is an endangered, ecologically significant area
- is under threat and has been diminished over the past 8 years by neighbouring building developments, introduced weed species, pollution and vandalism
- is cared for community volunteers and TCC. Since 2013 we have planted 1200 trees, removed hundreds of kg of dumped waste and removed acres of weeds.
