Friends of Yarra Valley Parks

FOYVP is a volunteer group helping with the conservation and rehabilitation of parklands and river banks in the Yarra Valley: Westerfolds, Banksia, Birrarrung and Candlebark parks, Yarra Flats, Sweeneys Flat and Longridge Park Camp.

They are advocates for the environmental protection and sustainability of the Yarra River, from Warrandyte State Park through to Bulleen Park. They organise monthly planting activities, in conjunction with Parks Victoria, regularly revisiting prior plantings to conduct weed and rabbit eradication and maintenance activities.
