Mountain Rivers Landcare is a small group located in the hills of Erica, 38kms north of Traralgon. It includes some of the regions most scenic damp, shrubby foothill and wet forests. The Thomson River flows through the Eastern part of their region and the Tyres River flows to the West, creating a highly biodiverse environment.
The group focuses on enhancing biodiversity for threatened species, habitat regeneration, control and mitigation of soil erosion/sedimentation into streams. Fighting the incursion of weeds and pests (blackberry, ragwort, deer, rabbits, thistles etc) is a keen focus for the group. Carbon farming systems and off stream stock watering points are emerging areas of interest.
