Event description

South Gippsland Landcare Network and South Gippsland Shire Council are again partnering with Arawata Landcare Group for hours of fun planting 1500 indigenous trees, shrubs and grasses by the side of the Great Southern Rail Trail.

We’ll meet at Ruby Hall and make our way by bike or guided walking bus to the planting site, about 1.5 kilometres along the trail. We’ll learn about the native plants and animals already living along the rail trail as we walk. At the planting site, there will be plant guards to decorate, which will not only protect our seedlings from browsing animals but also form an outdoor art gallery.

Our fabulous friends from Leongatha Rotary and Leongatha Lions Club will provide a tasty lunch afterwards.

The South Gippsland Landcare Network (SGLN) was formed in 1995 and today is made up of 16 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 16 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

SGLN is a not-for-profit organisation governed by a board. The board is responsible for the overall governance of the organisation: the leadership and supervision of the organisation’s affairs. The board’s primary role is to protect and enhance the value of the organisation for the benefit of its members and its mission.

Management and secretarial duties are fulfilled by a Landcare Facilitator. Projects are delivered by SGLN Project Officer/s and external contractors as required.
