about us

  

The Heytesbury and District Landcare Network was formed in 1996 as a representative body that provided support and facilitation to Landcare groups and many community groups within the Heytesbury and district region. The founding Landcare principles on which the HDLN was established have remained central to the services the Network has provided over the past 13 years. Today the HDLN has evolved to become a conduit link between the community and government/ industry bodies delivering NRM outcomes. This is a role that the HDLN takes great pride in being able to deliver; we believe that it is a role that has been developed through the establishment of valued relationships with government / industry and the community alike.
