27 August 2024 | Accor Hotel employees from across the state came together recently for a day of corporate volunteering at Pages Creek catchment. 

The latest successful projects under the Open Round of the State Governments Landcare Action Grants have been announced.

Landcare Tasmania is delivering the Landcare Action Grants (LAG) Open Round on behalf of the Tasmanian Government. Round 1 applications open in June-July 2023. Landscape Restoration Projects and Community Projects are eligible.

Statewide landscape restoration grants open to community groups, primary producers, private landholders and more. 

The Tasmanian Government launched the Landcare Action Grants in 2018, with the support of the Tasmanian Farmers and Graziers Association (TFGA) and Landcare Tasmania. The Program has been established to provide State funded grant opportunities to co-invest with farmers, landowners, and other community organisations on practical on-ground works for revegetation, sustainable agriculture, carbon farming and river restoration activities.

As part of this program, Landcare Tasmania will deliver an open round of grants for projects across Tasmania behalf of, and in partnership with, the Department of Natural Resources and Environment Tasmania (NRE Tas). Funds of up to $463,500 have been allocated for Round 5 of the open round grants. A further application round may be opened in late 2023 subject to funding availability.

Applications have now closed.
