About the project

This project has been developed by the Jan Juc Coast Action Group in association with Boojum web design.

This project was funded by CoastCare, the Great Ocean Road Coast Committee and Surf Coast Shire.

Information on indigenous plant uses was provided by the Wathaurung Aboriginal Corporation. The native species referred to in this site have long been cared for by the original Indigenous custodians the Wadawurrung communities. The Jan Juc Coast Action Group acknowledges this relationship and pays respect to the past and present Indigenous people for their ongoing nurturing of this land.
