Nature strips don't have to be just grass.

Across Ocean Grove, local residents have transformed ordinary nature strips into thriving native habitat through a wonderful project led by Ocean Grove Coastcare, with support from the Rotary Club of Ocean Grove and Geelong and District Rotary.

The project is creating habitat for local wildlife, improving our streetscapes and showing what can be achieved when community organisations and volunteers work together.

Congratulations to Ocean Grove Coastcare and everyone who helped make this project a success. We are proud to have played a small part in making Ocean Grove a little greener.
