Thanks to the Landcare Office, a Hunter Water grant has been gained to assist work at Gurranba Reserve because of the presence of Hunter Water infrastructure. The grant will provide for 1 Green Team day of LRO volunteers, 1 day of professional Bush Regenerators and $600 of plants, what a great end of year gift!
Landcaring with the locals and the Landcare Office volunteers will be at Stansfield Close reserves in December to wrap up the year.
The local Landcarers are already planning for next year the Carey Bay Wetlands getting the attention next February, to coincide with World Wetlands Day celebrations, a new sign is in the wind.
Landcare Legend, John Hughson, is moving onwards and upwards from Landcare Coordinator for the City to a new role in the recently restructured Asset Management team at LMCC. John's persistence, patience and big picture plans have embedded landcaring within the city as a way to protect and preserve our bushland assets. Sincerest thanks and well wishes go out to this local landcare champion, who had a vision for community stewardship of our bushland and made it happen, a huge achievement.
