Seeing native vegetation as ‘natural capital’, and managing it as such, has been a topic of great interest to policy makers and landholders in recent times, especially since the release of the Draft Native Vegetation Regulatory Map.

Walcha landholders can explore why at an upcoming workshop being facilitated by Southern New England Landcare.

“The workshop will offer practical guidance for landholders navigating native vegetation regulations, as well as new opportunities in natural capital,” said Elizabeth Rosser, Local Landcare Coordinator with Southern New England Landcare.

Local community organisation GWYMAC (Gwydir and Macintyre Resources Management Committee) is preparing to host the 2025 New England and North West Landcare Adventure, on 7th & 8th March at Inverell.

The two-day event, themed, ‘Nurturing Nature - Cultivating Tomorrow’ is designed to inspire and connect landholders, environment enthusiasts, and community members to facilitate thriving, sustainable communities in the region.

The Adventure offers a dynamic program of expert talks, immersive tours, and opportunities to network with like-minded individuals.
