When unfamiliar and fast-growing weeds began appearing along Dignams Creek, local landholders knew something was wrong. What followed was a coordinated effort to map, manage, and remove invasive weeds, bringing the Dignams Creek Landcare group back to life with fresh energy and purpose.

For over 17 years, Landcare has led a collaborative effort on the Far South Coast to protect our stunning beaches from invasive coastal weeds. The secret to its success? Everyone’s invited. National Parks, private landowners, local councils, Crown Land managers, Aboriginal Land Councils—this has truly been a shared mission across all land tenures.
