Engaging young people in adventurous care of the Yarra Ranges!
In June 2019, Yarra Ranges Landcare Network teemed with the Port Phillip and Westernport Catchment Management Authority to support a 2 day retreat - run by Intrepid Landcare, in Woori Yallock.
It was enormously successful - with 20 young people being shown local landcare projects, engaging with indigenous representatives and hearing from local members on their passion for landcare.
A new local group has formed and are excited about bringing landcare to a younger demography with a hint of adventure to boot! Already the group has supported a Landcare for Singles event, run a film night with weeding and an "Awkward orchid" walk.
