Landcare at Royal Park

What is a landcare group?

A landcare group is a group of people concerned about land management issues, working together to do something positive for the long-term health of the land. Some landcare groups may have a single focus (for example pest plants or salinity); others may be involved in many issues within their community. Most landcare groups are rural, although there is a rapidly growing number of groups along the coast and in urban areas.
