Stanley Park Committee of Management

The land that became Stanley Park was purchased by the community in 1919 and now belongs to the Macedon Ranges Shire Council. The 1983 Ash Wednesday bush fires caused significant damage, leading to massive regrowth of blackberry and broom. Our volunteers meet eight times a year for on-ground works with mainly weed control and revegetation. Additionally we have a number of partnerships that attend at other times of the year to work on projects. The restoration works have brought back indigenous grasses, shrubs, wildflowers and maidenhair fern. The park forms a wildlife corridor close to the Macedon regional Park.Contact: Helen Kalajdzic, Secretary, 5426 2424, stanleyparkmountmacedon@gmail.com
