Welcome to Bowning Bookham Landcare - Where we work together towards a healthy, sustainable, biodiverse and resilient future. 

We are proud to have two volunteer run nurseries, on private property which propogate, cultivate and supply tubestock for our members and the groups projects. 

The Wattle Valley & Bango Landcare nurseries are dedicated to growing plants for both conservation projects such as Habitat hops and members of Bowning-Bookham Landcare Group. The nurseries grow a wide range of native plants that are specifically chosen for their suitability to the local conditions, ensuring they thrive once planted. The plants include trees, shrubs, groundcovers, sedges and grasses. The nursery team is committed to growing healthy and robust plants, so you can be confident that you are getting high-quality plants that will contribute to the restoration and conservation of our local environment.

One of Bowning Bookham Landcare Groups key aims is to plant 185,000 plants by 2030 which is around 200 plants for each person in the district. This year we added a further 5000+ plants toward this goal. Our two nurseries produced over 5000+ plants with over 600 volunteer hours put into growing and caring for these plants.

Our nursery seeding day welcomed 21 volunteers to fill the Black Range nursery and our two community planting days at Pindari and on the Black Range Road planted over 600 plants with the help of 26 volunteers of all ages.

We provided many different education opportunities though the year. There were four events focused on revegetation including our spring wildflower walk and talk, wattle valley tour, habitat planning workshop and remnant vegetation walk.

Our Landcare on Farms group continued to work together on agricultural practices which improve soil health, land use sustainability and profitability. This group ran five events from farm tours at Mundarlo, Glenview and Pindari to taking a closer look different agricultural practices such as zero kill sowing and landscape rehydration techniques.

Our group continues meet regularly and work together to grow landscapes and communities that are healthy, sustainable, biodiverse and resilient. To get involved please contact our coordinator Sarah [email protected] of follow our journey on Facebook, Instagram or YouTube Channel
