Education
Our landscape priorities are sustainable agriculture, water, biodiversity, pest plants and animals, and community. As part of our Grassroots Grants program, funding is available for educational projects. Successful projects have included schools creating nature gardens, running educational and revegetation programs, and getting involved with cultivating threatened species, supported by our Landscape Officers.
