Welcome to Landcare Broken Hill
Landcare is a national network of thousands of locally-based community groups who care for our country by creating sustainable land management. This unique partnership between communities, government and organisations is achieving great things. Through Australia’s people and communities, the Landcare movement is making a big difference in caring for our country.
Established in 2009, Landcare Broken Hill had an initial primary purpose to assist in the care and maintenance of the Regeneration Reserve which surrounds the perimeter of the City of Broken Hill. It is an affiliated member of both Western Landcare NSW Inc and Landcare NSW Inc. Since April 2019, Landcare Broken Hill has been effectively relaunched with a far wider, all encompassing approach aimed at achieving vastly improved integrated environmental management of all aspects and areas of the City and its surrounds. The relaunch came with a hallmark project - Greening the Hill Mk. 2 - which is a community-wide initiative, successful because of its network of partnerships established across all sectors of the Broken Hill community and beyond. Its aim is to renew and re-green the gardens and City for the benefit of all.
Landcare Broken Hill acknowledges the Wilyakali people of the Barkindji Nation as the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we live and work. We recognise and value their continuing connection to Country and pay our respects to their Elders past and present.
