The Connecting Our Waterways project aims to improve landscape function and productivity by restoring or increasing the connectivity of riparian vegetation on farms in the Watershed Landcare district. Watershed Landcare is seeking expressions of interest (EOI) for funding from landholders in our region to conduct on-ground works to enhance riparian vegetation or increase the connectivity of riparian corridors on the land they manage.

The Landcare driving sustainable land use project aims to restore or improve landscape function and productivity by encouraging farmer innovation and change in two key areas: grazing management and farm trees/revegetation on farms in the Watershed Landcare district. Total funding of $21,300 is available to contribute to activities that increase groundcover and perenniality of pastures, improve soil health, and/or improve ecosystem function. Individual landholders can apply for up to $5,000 in funding to conduct on-ground works to enhance their grazing management and vegetation on the land they manage.
