You’re invited to our Ecological site assessment & paddock walk on Tuesday 28 April, starting 9am sharp. The site is being prepped for a small scale environmental planting project. This is a great opportunity to to see firsthand what steps are required when registering a carbon project.
RSVP for catering and pin drop to paddock site (10mins east of Cumnock on Avondale Rd). Check out the flyer for details.
A partnership project with Mid Macquarie Landcare, Little River Landcare, Three Rivers Landcare, Watershed Landcare and Central Tablelands Landcare scope out the extent and severity of salinity across the central west and tablelands.
After 3 consecutive wet years, the Salinity issue has once again raised it’s ugly head.
Did you know that the Little River Landcare catchment is the second saltiest in NSW? Salinity sites are popping up across this area and established sites are expanding rapidly. However, there are management decisions that can restabilise these areas and in some cases capitalise grazing production when strategically managed.
If you have a bare patch/ wet area of concern on your property, we can visit your farm, assess the site, and make management recommendations.
Recommendations consider the past & current management of the site, in conjunction with its geological landscape and physical soil/water tests taken on site.
Do you have a wet patch / bare area or spot of delayed plant growth you’re concerned about on your property? Book in a site inspection by contacting Phoebe at Little River Landcare.

The Soils PET Pilot Project is an innovative pilot to test mechanisms of engagement and information transfer. The project utilises on-ground connectivity of Landcare networks to stimulate change in the management of landscapes in Central West NSW.
The Goobang Cluster project successfully removed pest animal access to 4545 ha through exclusion fencing and a buffering zone of a further 3970 ha. By collaborating across the Goobang cluster boundary, landholders reduced the recovery periods associated with excessive pest animal grazing during drought, effectively enabling the cluster to match their stocking rates with their carrying capacity.
