What is the Kananook Creek Gardens Vision Plan about?
The site has significant ecological value. This element of the Vision Plan is about undertaking ecological and vegetation work to showcase the area’s significant pre-colonisation native plants.
The relationship between Kananook Creek and its Traditional Owners and custodians will be acknowledged, celebrated and maintained by sharing stories and cultural events.
Research partnerships and education will promote appreciation, and a desire to preserve this place for generations to come.
Enhancements will be constructed to allow us to enjoy the creek and its surrounding natural beauty.
Landscape improvements have the potential to create a unified landscape character, strengthen the identity of the park and create a memorable experience for all.
