East Tamar Landcare
East Tamar Landcare was formed in 1992. We are a small but active group of ten members, concerned about the Pipers River and its catchment. Our main focus now is a removal of willows from Pipers River (the photo shows a fitting end to the willows!), and also gorse, blackberry and ragwort eradication. In the past, a lot of riparian fencing and revegetation of the river bank and tributaries was accomplished. Currently, our main project is completing a boardwalk along the Pipers Rivers at our interpretation centre.
Regular Events:
Annual Ragwort Raid (January). Clean up Australia Day (March), Catch it in the Catchment (November), Boneseed Blitz (September) and regular working bees.
