Wishing Landcarers a happy holidays, looking back at 2020, and membership renewal info.
Happy Holidays from Landcare Tasmania
What a year! Enjoy these photos re-capping some great Landcaring moments across the state.
Our office will be closed from 24 Dec 2020, reopening on 11 Jan 2021. We wish you, your families, and communities a safe and restful holiday season.
And as always, but particularly in a year that saw household waste increase by 20%, let's all help to look after the land by being mindful of the waste we produce.
