Come along to a family-friendly picnic on the banks of Deep Creek at Doggetts Bridge in Lancefield.

This is an opportunity to learn about the way the creek feeds the local ecosystem and provides essential habitat and water for native species. Document what you see and in an artist-led nature journaling session, take a walk with a pole camera to see gliders sleeping in their nest boxes and discover some of the weird and wonderful small critters that live in the creek.

Bring a picnic blanket and some lunch or snacks and enjoy a relaxed afternoon creekside, mixing art with education and simply enjoying nature.

Tickets are by small donation to local charity Biolinks Alliance which will go directly to nest box programs in the area.

This event is part of the Deep Creek Biolink project, delivered by Biolinks Alliance in partnership with Upper Deep Creek Landcare Network and Macedon Ranges Shire Council, with funding from Melbourne Water.
