Welcome to the Montmorency Community Group

We're dedicated to creating a sustainable and resilient Montmorency, with the added bonus of making it an even nicer place to live and building community. The group is based on the "Transitions Town" initiative which aims to address Climate Change and Peak Oil with positive actions. Link to Transition Towns

Bio-diversity Group

What would Montmorency be without our huge variety of trees, plants, insects and birds: our rich biodiversity? Our goal is to promote community stewardship through: 
  • Supporting wildlife habitat corridors
  • Protection of remnant vegetation, especially trees  
  • Control and removal of invasive weeds 
  • Sharing knowledge and conversations with the community

Friends of Montmorency bushlands

We won a Pick My Project grant

The grant is for the Banyule Sugar Glider Project which will install and monitor 300 sugar glider boxes.

The boxes will be installed on public and private land East of the Plenty River including St Helena, Briar Hill, Greenhills, parts of Greensborough and Lower Plenty
