Places for people, plants and animals
Scrub Wren are a gardening and land management group.
We design, build and maintain gardens and small blocks in Melbourne's north and through Victoria's Southwest.
We can turn your vision for your garden or bush block into reality, planting trees, establishing plants, mulching, managing weeds and pests, and protecting and restoring conservation areas.
