300 Wallamore Road
Landcare Week, held from August 5-11, is an annual celebration that honors Australians actively involved in restoring, enhancing, and
protecting their local natural environments. This year’s theme, "Landcare Is For Everyone (L.I.F.E)," invites everyone to participate. Join
us at our local landcare nursery at 300 Wallamore Road for a chat about all things landcare. We will also be doing some plantings to
beautify our nursery surroundings. If you’re interested, stop by for a cuppa and a chat!
The nursery will be open for landcare week Mon, Wed, Frid from 9-2pm. We look forward to seeing you there.

Meet Vetiver, a remarkable grass with deep roots and big benefits. Known for its ability to stabilise soil, reduce erosion, and filter
runoff, Vetiver is a powerhouse for land restoration and water management. Its dense root system binds the soil, making it ideal for creek
banks, dam edges, and steep slopes, while also providing habitat and shelter for insects and small wildlife. Tough, drought-tolerant, and
low-maintenance, Vetiver is nature’s own erosion control expert.
