Stirling Park species
Overview
Stirling Park is looked after by a group of Land Carers in association with Friends of Grasslands. The team is led by Jamie Pittock. Many of the woody and other weeds have been removed from the previuosly neglected site and the native understorey species are now prospering. The area is also known by the aboriginal name Gurubang Dhaura.
