Yarra Ranges, VIC Healing in our Gardens initiative builds resiliency following 2021 storms
Yarra Ranges, VIC Healing In Our Gardens Resiliency Storms
One thousand residents experienced tree loss and significant garden damage during the storms. Healing in our Gardens partners volunteers not impacted by the storms with affected neighbors. The council, local landscapers, and gardening groups provide advice to partnered residents about replacing what was lost with beneficial plants. This project is part of a Resilient Yarra Ranges effort that includes a microgrid feasibility study and solar power for disaster relief centers.
