CARDINIA Shire residents who have protected their native bushland with ‘Trust for Nature Covenants’ will get together for their annual event on Sunday 19 April from 12.30pm at Trish and Peter Trewin’s property “Yellow Robin”, 570 Bourkes Creek Road, Pakenham Upper.
The aim of the group is to raise the profile of the trust’s work in relation to Conservation Covenants while getting to know each other and their properties.
The afternoon will consist of a BYO picnic lunch and drinks, an informal discussion on the group’s activities and a guided tour of the property.
Various Trust for Nature staff will be attending and bringing everyone up to date with current developments.
Anyone wishing to learn about the trust’s work and the Cardinia Shire’s Biodiversity Incentive scheme for covenanted properties is most welcome to attend.
Trust for Nature focuses on a landscape scale conservation using land purchase, conservation covenants and a Revolving Fund.
Trust for Nature is a non-profit organisation that works to protect remnant bushland – forever.
