Landcare is a community based approach to the conservation of our natural resources, with its roots in the mid eighties in Victoria with the development of a number of small Farm Tree groups. It has since evolved into a nationwide partnership between the community, industry and government to promote sustainable management of land, water and living natural resources for the benefit of the whole community.
