The South Gippsland Landcare Network (SGLN) was formed in 1995 and today is made up of 15 member Landcare groups and over 500 families who manage and farm the land. The success of the network is due to the inspiring contributions made by the passionate individuals and volunteers.

Our Vision

SGLN represents and supports communities working together to increase biodiversity and promote sustainable land management.

Our Goals & Objectives

To support and facilitate on-ground action across SGLN and its Landcare groups.
To facilitate communication and cooperation within and between groups and grow membership.
To share knowledge, deliver projects and collaborate with our network and stakeholders.
To ensure SGLN demonstrates best practice governance and supports our groups to do the same.

Who are we

Our network is made up of 15 local groups working to preserve and protect the natural environment, while also enhancing the long-term sustainability of farming in this part of Victoria.

Our members are primary producers, hobby farmers, tree changers, backyard gardeners and environmentalists of all sorts – a diverse group that finds common ground in caring for the land and building community
