Healthy land supports healthy operations 🌾 Managing erosion, grazing, and resources wisely creates balance between productivity and conservation. #SustainableAg #LandCare #Stewardship

Love the concept of #NationalNestboxWeek. We were at a local gathering of community recreation groups last Saturday, and our #Landcare Group stall featured nest boxes made by members of a Ballarat Men's Shed, and plans for nestboxes. Robust in design, but not as architecturally stylish as yours!

A simple chemistry trick could end forever plastic Seeing plastic trash while hiking inspired a Rutgers chemist to rethink why synthetic plastics last forever while natural polymers don’t. By mimicking tiny structural features used in DNA and proteins...

In the realm of #environmental / #conservation work, let's have some #Landcare field trials. We so easily spread #microplastics, e.g. by slashing weeds with #plastic line.

Australian native tussock grass (Poa labillardieri) with a backdrop of white campion (Lychnis), Liriope and an effusive Hippeastrum. In the background is a linden tree (Tilia).

This #tussock grass (Poa labillardieri) is native to southern #Australia, & we use it a lot in all-indigenous #Landcare revegetation plantings. Here in our garden it's teamed with exotic species - Liriope, Lychnis & Hippeastrum. The kind sun of early summer sets off the fountain of tussock flowers.

Ranger digging gently with spoon to recover eggs or hatchings

Five unearthed hatchlings on a a hand, they are curled up and dusty. Each is the side of a AU ten cent piece

Eight hatchlings in a bucket, squirming.

Jerrabomberra Wetlands #landcare day. Because November is turtle breeding month, we just did turtles today. Turtles lay eggs and then they hatch when it rains, but foxes are a problem so we cover nests with chicken wire, then when it rains we try to get to as […]

Up at dawn and away to another Botanic Gardens plant sale, via the farmers' markets for some bulk local olive oil. #landcare

Original post on toot.community

Done all my homework for tomorrow's assault on the Australian National Botanic Gardens' native plant sale. A popular twice yearly event, it's best to get there at dawn, with helpers (if you want LOTS and we do), with equipment (trays and trolleys), with your list, and with very sharp elbows. The […]

Abundance returns to wetland after man-made sheep pasture removed A sheep farmer has welcomed the restoration of an internationally significant wetland on his property outside of Hobart. The collaboration of a non-profit organisation with landowners, scientists, the Aboriginal community and governments has allowed the return of a vital ecosystem.

As wetlands go, RAMSAR classification is the gold standard. We can only dream, at Jerrabomberra Wetlands. Bravo Tassie!

A superb example of the value of ongoing, regular water testing as part of a #CitizenScience program, in establishing links between monitoring water quality, calling out pollution and protecting biodiversity. #Landcare #platypus

Large eucalypt with an older gentleman in a hat talking about the scar on the tree etc. Several adults and children standing around in the grassy bushland on a sunny day.

The wonderful Dr Michael Mulvaney guiding about 40 locals around remnant bushland behind residential Pearce, ACT. We're learning about trees, grasses, birds, insects etc and it's fascinating. #landcare

3. The sad fact is every extinction under their mad rush to clear & mine habitats will have Watt's name, not the Opposition's, on it. And, lest he beat all the blame, our generation's shame will be in the stewardship we failed to enact while we could.
Ah well, off to do #Landcare stuff again...

Between the national conference & awards, September was a big month for the #Landcare community.
Delighted to see three of the Victorian finalists get the nod, including Bryce Watts-Parker, Tavish Bloom and the Merri Creek Management Committee.

Conservation group wins major award after four decades of landcare A landcare network at "the forefront of technology" has won the 2025 Bob Hawke Award for its innovative approach to sustainable farming practices.

Hi @csiropublishing.bsky.social . Does anyone produce posters on specific types of plants, animals, etc anymore? Useful for groups like #Landcare for whom #BiodiversityMonth is a celebration of year-round effort.

Saved by the rain. #landcare

Another day of NOT GARDEING but Land Care. Chipping done, then some work on the wood shed. Lastly it was some shredding because the green stuff won't go through the big chipper.
#notgardening #landcare #newhouse

I am definitely not a gardener so I am going to call my 'exploits' land care. So... A busy day of land care today. Compost storage made. Old clearance wood/whins/gorse burnt, but a pile left for chipping. Also started the base for the woodshed ! #landcare #highlands #woodshed

Bird Hide constructed by the Ross Creek Landcare Group at the local wetlands, June/July 2025.

Our Ross Creek #Landcare group celebrated #LandcareWeek by completing this #birdhide at our local wetlands. Done just in time, before the #Latham'sSnipe (oojishigi, #オオジシギ ) return from Japan to spend the Australian summer here. #addBirder

Landcare Week acknowledges the Australians who are actively restoring, enhancing, and protecting the natural environment in their communities 🌲 #auspol #politas #Landcare @australianlabor.bsky.social

The great abandonment: what happens to the natural world when people disappear? The long read: Across the globe, vast swathes of land are being left to be reclaimed by nature. To see what could be coming, look to Bulgaria

www.theguardian.com/news/2024/no...
A beaut article from @tessairini.bsky.social for @theguardian.com - example on the story is from Bulgaria, but the relevance is worldwide, including to #landcare 🌳 in Australia.
