Free land care workshops on the FleurieuLandscapes Hills and Fleurieu is working with local experts and land managers to deliver several events to help create local property action plans, aiming to boost productivity, environmental stewardship and long-term sustainability.

In a changing climate, a clear plan is one of the most powerful tools land managers can have, according to Landscapes Hills and Fleurieu.


To support farmers and land managers in adapting to a changing climate and improving the health and resilience of natural features on their properties, it is rolling out a series of practical workshops designed to help them strengthen their property’s readiness for the future.


Focused on practical solutions and long-term sustainability, the workshops will support land managers to create tailored action plans that boost the health and productivity of natural assets such as soil, watercourses, native vegetation and revegetation areas. 


Developing a property action plan is a critical step for land managers looking to apply for grants or seek co-investment.



“These workshops reflect our commitment to supporting land managers through the Landscapes Hills and Fleurieu Stewardship Program,” says Will Hannaford, Stewardship Team Leader.


“By helping land managers plan for the future and care for their natural assets, we’re working together to build long-term sustainability and resilience for our landscapes across the region.”


Themes of the workshops will cover a wide range of topics, including soil care, weed control, managing farm emissions, carbon markets, green finance, healthy watercourses and more.


The events are designed to support all land managers, from large broadacre producers to those with smaller lifestyle blocks. 


Whether people are just getting started with a property action plan or looking to refine their current approach, these workshops offer expert guidance and a chance to connect with others who are navigating similar challenges.


Upcoming workshops include Planning Healthy Watercourses at Sellicks Hill on Thursday 16 October and Planning for Thriving Native Vegetation at McLaren Vale on Tuesday 21 October.

Further events are scheduled for Finniss and Strathalbyn in November.
