Guest Speaker: Professor Martin Thoms Topic: "Resilience in Our Regional Landscapes: Navigating a Changing World"

Resilience has become an everyday concept and a frequently used term.  It is part of science, art, health, sport, and agricultural production.  But what does resilience mean to the way we manage our regional landscapes?  In many fields it is often referred to as the ability to bounce-back.  In an era of rapid change from the threats of climate variability, increasing large scale developments and unpredictable policy change will the landscapes of the Namoi bounce back?  In this talk we will explore how our landscapes may respond to future shocks.

To make the evening even more delightful, we are pleased to offer a complimentary dinner and a drink for all attendees. 

To secure your place at the AGM, please RSVP by 1 November.

Join us for an evening of education, camaraderie, and reflection as we gather to chart a path toward a more resilient and sustainable future for our regional landscapes.

Explore a rare remnant grassy-box woodland rich in biodiversity and cultural heritage, and learn about the conservation value of these unique ecosystems. We’ll then visit the McVeigh family property, “Aytonlea,” Winton, where over 7,000 native trees and shrubs have been planted to create a thriving, biodiverse landscape. The day will conclude with lunch at Aytonlea and an opportunity to reflect on how thoughtful land management can balance conservation and productivity across our rural environments.

Community Takes Action on Common ‘Indian’ Myna Tamworth

Community Takes Action on Common ‘Indian’ Myna Tamworth

If you’ve spent time around Tamworth’s Peel Street cafés, you’ve probably noticed the cheeky Indian Mynas darting between tables, snatching crumbs, and leaving more than a little mess behind. While they might look harmless, these introduced birds are a serious pest — and local community members are banding together to do something about it.

Our members often say that when you become part of Landcare, you’re not just joining a group, you’re becoming part of a family. The concept is so compatible with Australian culture it’s hard not to get involved! By becoming a TRLA member, you’ll be supporting our work, learning new skills, becoming part of the solution, and helping to make a difference for the future.
