ECOSYSTEMS
Preservation our way of life
We perform system repair to protect or improve the ecosystem services we depend on to maintain our social, cultural and economic well-being.
Our approach is to work with catchment processes by maintaining and improving an ecosystem's structural components and managing current and emerging threats to their functioning.
Our activities involve a high level of integration with other initiatives to improve overall outcomes for the environment, which are enhanced through revegetation with native plant species, control of pest species and planning for climate change.

The Russell catchment’s coastline provides sanctuary for Great-Billed Heron, a wading bird found along stunningly beautiful riverbanks and lagoons of the Russell River and its tributaries. Most often, we only catch a glimpse as this very reclusive bird takes flight upon hearing our arrival. Sometimes though, we’re lucky enough to see it perched above the water on an overhanging tree.
