Campfire Gathering

Campfire Gathering

The Campfire Gathering at Boonalla Aboriginal Area on Gamilaroi Country was a truly meaningful day of connection, learning, and reflection. Coordinators from across the northwest came together in a culturally safe and welcoming space to build relationships, share stories, and strengthen partnerships with the Aboriginal community.

The day began with a moving Acknowledgement of Country, followed by powerful storytelling that invited everyone to reflect on their own connection to place. Through open and respectful conversations, we explored our experiences in Landcare and the importance of Aboriginal partnerships in our shared work caring for Country.

Lunch provided the perfect opportunity to relax, share a yarn, and deepen our connections. In the afternoon, Landcare staff engaged in a robust and honest discussion about what Aboriginal partnerships mean in practice, before ending the day with a quiet reflection and personal commitment to Country.

Erosion control with rock bags

North West Local Land Services Extension officer Craig Pullman invited Landcare Coordinators to view the application of erosion control Rockbags at a property west of Barraba on 29th May 2025.

These flexible geotextile bags filled with rocks, are increasingly used for creek erosion control.  They are environmentally friendly, being made from non-toxic, recycled plastic, and are permeable to water and suitable for fish and wildlife habitats. 

The site was a narrow creek bed with a high eroded bank requiring stabilisation.
