Meaning 'Mother's Foot', this grassland, formerly known as Jukes Road Grassland, is an important part of the recently declared Merri Creek Marram Baba ('Body of the Mother') Parklands, a critical biodiversity corridor through Melbourne's northern suburbs. Long-term restoration works are being undertaken by Merri Creek Management Committee (MCMC).
