Greens are go for Green Wedge

Jo Tenner, Greens Candidate for Monbulk is delighted to announce the Greens support for the purchase of the Knox Glenfern Green Wedge/Cattle Run.

“The Greens wholeheartedly support the public purchase of this land for both it’s cultural and natural significance. It must be protected for future generations. The Green Wedge is supposed to stop the city from sprawling outwards across land of this type, it appears that adding it to the public estate is the only way to ensure it is protected.”

The Glenfern Green Wedge/Cattle Run represents a unique piece of the Dandenong Ranges Foothills; a key link in the chain of environmentally significant land that comprises the Glenfern Bushlands and Gilmore Park; and one of the few large areas of land in Knox that has not been subject to the sprawl of urban development.
