Caring for our environment and people
with landscape restoration projects
Landcare Australia’s work with the landcare community improves biodiversity, restores landscapes, builds resilience in Australia’s food and farming systems, and creates stronger communities. We also manage large scale environmental restoration projects.
With over 35 years working with corporate partners, government agencies and community stakeholders, Landcare Australia has the experience and expertise to manage multiple projects that have a tangible impact on our natural environment and those that work to protect it.

Our recent landscape restoration projects include:
2024 Bupa Landcare Grants Program
In 2024, Bupa and Landcare Australia partnered to create the Bupa Landcare Grants program, supporting projects across the country in urban and peri-urban communities. The program helped transform local environments and create healthier, greener spaces for people to enjoy.
2024 Landcare Australia Community Grants Progrm
Launched as part of 2024 Landcare Week, the Landcare Australia Community Grants program celebrated the 35-year anniversary of landcare as a national movement and the establishment of Landcare Australia.
The Healthy Rivers Project
The Murray-Darling Basin covers up to 14% of Australia’s land mass and is home to over 120 native bird species and more than 50 fish species. The rivers of the Murray-Darling Basin serve as a vital water resource, but they have suffered due to previous land clearing, and extreme flooding events.
20 Million Trees Program
The 20 Million Trees Program was an Australian Government initiative managed by the Department of Agriculture, Water and the Environment. Landcare Australia was one of several large-scale service providers involved in the program.
The Biodiversity Project with Country Road and Landcare Australia
Since 2020, Country Road and Landcare Australia have partnered on The Biodiversity Project to improve biodiversity value on cotton farms. The Biodiversity Project is currently focused on the Namoi and Macquarie Valley regions, areas identified as priority for biodiversity enhancement by the 2019 Cotton Research and Development Corporation (CRDC) report ‘Management of Biodiversity in the Cotton Landscape: Iconic and Threatened Species’.
Banrock Station Wines and Landcare Australia Project
Since 2021, Banrock Station has partnered with Landcare Australia to plant 100,000 native trees and shrubs each year.
