Private Property Support 

Hawkesbury–Nepean Landcare Network Inc (HNLN) supports private landholders by connecting them with practical, on‑ground help, community networks, and programs that make caring for land easier, more rewarding, and more sustainable. Whether you’re restoring bushland, improving habitat, managing a rural property, or simply wanting to learn, HNLN provides pathways for every landholder to get involved.

How HNLN Supports Private Landholders?

Landholders can access a wide range of services, programs, and community groups, including:

• On‑ground support and working bees through the Wandering Wallabies Roaming Landcare Group to help with bush regeneration, weed control, planting, and general land management. Offering flexible, no‑commitment volunteering and the option to host a working bee on your property and guidance on sustainable land management practices.

• Private land conservation programs, including Land for Wildlife and opportunities through the NSW Biodiversity Conservation Trust.

• Connections to local Landcare groups, such as Cattai Hills Environment Network, Kurrajong and Colo Koala Corridors, and the Hills–Hornsby Rural Koala Project. For more groups, see the "Our Committee and Groups" page.

• Support for starting sustainable land and farming practices or joining community-led environmental projects.
