What is Landcare Fire Recovery?

Upper Goulburn Landcare Network
Since the devastating Black Saturday bushfires of Feb 2009, the Upper Goulburn Landcare Network has been working with landholders and local communities in the Murrindindi and Mitchell Shires to rebuild and rehabilitate the local environment on private property.
This blog presents some of the stories.
To find out more about our program or to volunteer with one of our projects contact Landcare Coordinator Chris Cobern on 5736 0104.

Wetland Restoration at Narbethong

August 9th 2010
ANZ / Treeproject / Landcare Partnership
17 volunteers plus Lyn who drove the bus from treeproject .
Janet and Cathy.
Beautiful weather.
Planted to restore a creek and dam below the newly rebuilt Saladin Lodge Conference Centre.
Enjoyed lunch in the sunshine and a tour of the building followed by a hike to the hilltop at the back of the property . Studied the incredible diversity of plants regenerating after the fire , a few of which we could not identify but will go back to collect seed .
Thanks to Ray the painter for letting us into the property and to Kim for racing back from Melbourne to thank the volunteers.
