Courtesy of the Refreshing Upper Billabong project, we have a limited number of tubestock suitable for planting both instream and along creek banks to reduce erosion and create habitat.
This initiative is aimed at understorey planting, on and around creek areas that are already fenced off.
Have you got a creek area on the farm that could benefit from extra planting? Have you got an area that has a gap in the tree canopy along a creek?
It might be an area that was fenced years ago and has lost the shrubs, it might be an area where the instream and toe of bank vegetation haven’t established and needs enhancement.
We also have a limited number of steel mesh-tree guards to establish trees in areas where fencing is not as practical but individual trees can be planted.
If you are interested give Kylie a call or text 0418 198 522 (kyliedurant@holbrooklandcare.org.au) and we will follow up with more information.

Refreshing Rivers is working alongside Landcare, local government, and the Soil Conservation Service to install cod logs in the Adelong Creek. These structures form part of a nature‑based solution designed to strengthen river resilience following extreme weather events and ongoing habitat loss.

In what is thought to be an Australian first, a portable PIT (Passive Integrated Transponder) reader has been installed in Adjungbilly Creek to help scientists track the movements of the endangered Macquarie Perch.

We lacked information on the aquatic wildlife of the Upper Billabong catchment, so using Citizen Science - the Refreshing Rivers iNaturalist project and eDNA tests, we have gathered 1,672 observations across the catchment and also completed 9 eDNA profiles in local waterways.
