Landcare Tasmania, Zoodoo, Destination Southern Tasmania, Manheim-Cox Automotive, Landcare Australia, and the Pages Creek Catchment Group all contributed to the planting of 950 plants in 1 hectare at ZooDoo this August.

Landcare Tasmania’s Seed Resilience Project was developed in response to a forecasted decrease in native plant propagation and an increasing demand for local provenance plants for biodiverse revegetation projects in Tasmania.

For the past two years we have been delivering Feral Cat information sessions with our partners to the community across Tasmania as part of our landscape projects. Our information session on 17th June in Triabunna was well attended and very informative. With support from specialists including partner the Centre for Invasive Species Solutions, we learnt how devastating feral cats, stray cats and even pet cats are to wildlife. On average a feral cat can kill 791 animals a year.

Last Saturday's Seed Collection and Propagation workshop was a great success.  We were joined by members of the Bicheno Landcare Group and the Seymour Community Action Group Inc. The participants enjoyed sorting seed from their local areas and then planted this seed in tree tubes ready to take home and look after. These plants will go directly to the on-ground works that both groups are doing,  helping to improve the biodiversity and resilience of the local ecosystems.
