Landcare for our Future events aim to:
🍃Give you new skills in landcare including: tackling invasive plants, managing erosion and track maintenance, ecosystem monitoring and planting. You can use these skills for landcare in the future, or just caring for your own backyard!
🍃Connect you with other like-minded young people and build strong network of young people who care about the environment in Canberra.
🍃Connect you with local landcare and parkcare groups in Canberra, and allow for knowledge sharing together
🍃Make a difference repairing some of our native ecosystems around the ACT
🍃Be FUN! We won’t just be working, we will be snacking, chatting and having some fun social times as well.
