Landcare Week is a time to celebrate and acknowledge the tireless efforts of volunteers who work year-round to protect and enhance our natural environment.

Richmond Landcare is celebrating Landcare week by inviting the community to join a special guided coastal walk on Sunday, August 4th, from 8 am to 12 pm. This event will showcase the restoration and rehabilitation sites of Ballina Coastcare and Lennox Head Landcare along the stunning coastline from Flat Rock to Lennox Head.

Participants will enjoy breathtaking coastal views and gain valuable insights into coastal restoration projects led by dedicated volunteers.

“We’re really looking forward to sharing our restoration stories of this much loved coastal strip. Countless volunteer hours by several groups have been spent in this area over the past decades and it will be great to come together to enjoy the nature that we’ve helped to restore”, says Shaun Eastment, president of Lennox Head Landcare. This event not only highlights the achievements of Ballina

Coastcare and Lennox Head Landcare, but also serves as an inspiration for others to get involved and support local environmental initiatives. The walk provides a unique opportunity to see frsthand the positive impact of local Landcare initiatives and to connect with fellow community members passionate about environmental conservation.
