LANDCARE
Linking land, people and ideas
Help care for and protect your special places
Through active partnership and collaboration with organisations and landholders, Green Skills protects and restores the natural ecology of areas from Perth to WA’s Great Southern.
Our hands-on revegetation and restoration projects build community awareness of the importance of biodiversity to a sustainable future.
Green Skills has a particular focus on weed control, shorebirds, and wetlands, and works closely with the iconic Gondwana Link program.
Revegetate Restore and Rehabilitate
Green Skills has a wealth of experience in practical, collaborative, and innovative ecological restoration; from fencing off native vegetation, revegetating important places and managing weeds.
Biodiversity
The South West of Western Australia is one of 34 recognised global biodiversity hotspots. Our contribution to conserving and restoring our natural environment is vitally important and it relies on community and volunteer involvement.
Wetlands and Waterways
Wetlands are a crucial part of our natural world, but are often under-appreciated and threatened.
