FUNDED PROJECTS SUPPORTED BY DONATIONS

In 2019, Landcare NSW established the ‘Landcare NSW Seed Fund’ in response to the devastating drought and fire season of the 2019/2020 summer. Our grassroots-led approach and belief that funds should go where they are needed most meant we released 100% of the funds to directly support on-ground work throughout the NSW Landcare community.

The funds helped restore and repair Landcare sites that had been destroyed or impacted by the drought and fire to rebuild to support our communities and our environment.

REVEGETATION AT GOOMBRIDGES

After the 2020 fires destroyed Landcare site, a mere 5 years old, Granite Borders Landcare applied for funding to replace trees killed by the fires. The community worked together to plant 250 seedlings and held a community planting day to help restore the site.

NEST BOX BUILDING AT WYTALIBA

20 members of the Wytaliba community came together to build nestboxes and learn about the importance of hollows for native wildlife. The boxes were built for 6 different wildlife species common the the Wytaliba region: the king parrot, corella, micro bat, brushtail possum & southern boobook.

THREATENED SPECIES SEED COLLECTION

Milton Rural Landcare worked with local specialist to collect native seeds from remnant rainforest to help create linkages and restore native canopy in response to the fires in southern NSW. The project sourced seed and propagated them in their nursery to ensure that local species survive and thrive in challenging conditions.
