Welcome to the Macedon and Mt Macedon Landcare Group.
Our vision is for a Macedon Ranges teeming with healthy and diverse ecosystems,
and an active, connected community, noticing, knowing and caring for the environment.
We are a new and enthusiastic landcare group keen to build a strong community around caring for, regenerating and appreciating the beautiful Macedon Ranges flora, fauna and waterways.
We’d love you to join us.

Current Projects
Around 100 hectares of logged pine forest on top of the Mount Macedon range, were returned to public care after being commercially managed for pine harvesting for several decades.
They will will need the care and attention of the local community if they are to return to a healthy native ecosystem.
Extreme environmental events, like storms, floods and fires can affect any community. They impact the health and wellbeing of people, as well as the environment.
Macedon and Mt Macedon Landcare Group, with the support of the Shire and experts in various fields, will be holding a series of events and workshops in 2024, to help build personal and community resilience.
Like a landlocked country, our wildlife can get stuck, unable to feed and breed across diversity needed to thrive. At the same time our waterways are stuck behind fences, choked with weeds and randomly sectioned off.
Biolinks (previously known a wildlife corridors) offer a solution for both.
“Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.”
