The Bemboka Landcare Group was formed in 1996, with the aim of caring for Bemboka’s 30,000 hectares of natural and agricultural landscapes.
We engage with landowners through a top down approach to repair and protect riparian reserve areas, improve water quality and enhance social amenity over the Bemboka catchment area. We also act as an information gateway for landowners seeking to manage environmental issues on their own properties and adjacent riparian reserves. Our current priority is to preserve and restore the Bemboka River Reserve as an example of Lowland Grassy Woodland in the South East Corner Bioregion.
Projects
The aim of this project is to preserve and restore 40 acres of crown land between Colombo Creek, the Bemboka River and the cemetery. This reserve is a significant example of Lowland Grassy Woodland in the South East Corner Bioregion, an ecological community listed as in danger of becoming extinct under the Threatened Species Conservation Act in NSW.
