BushBank: An ambitious program aiming to restore 20,000 hectares of land and protect these properties with a Trust for Nature conservation covenant.
Our volunteer committee meet once a month via zoom, and occasionally invite a guest speaker to present on topics that may be of interest to our members.
Cassinia Environmental is the Victorian Government’s delivery partner for the private land stream of BushBank.
In May we were delighted to meet Krista Patterson-Majoor, BushBank Program Manager at Cassinia Environmental. Krista provided an overview of the BushBank Program with a focus on the Private Land Stream. It’s an ambitious program aiming to restore 20,000 hectares of land and protect these properties with a Trust for Nature conservation covenant.
We are sharing Krista’s presentation here which provides detail on:
Properties that already have a covenant in place are eligible but check with the BushBank team about the requirements for “new” revegetation versus supplementary planting or facilitating natural regeneration.
If this is a presentation you would be interested in hearing in future, please let us know.
