Enchanting Harmony: Suite Mágica by Andrew Blanch and Emily Granger Supports Nundle Community Garden's Growth

Guitarist Andrew Blanch and harpist Emily Granger united their talents to cast a captivating spell with Suite Mágica. Presented by Music in the Regions, this musical delight not only enthralled the senses but also echoed support for the Upper Peel Landcare Group.

Blanch and Granger's harmonious collaboration painted a musical canvas that transported the audience. Held at Nundle Memorial Hall, the event harmonized cultural enrichment and environmental concern, benefiting the Nundle Community Garden.

The Upper Peel Landcare Group raised close to $500 through ticket sales and food during the event. This substantial contribution will significantly aid in the further development of the community garden, marking a successful fusion of artistic appreciation and community support.

Emily Granger's Lyon & Healy Salzedo harp added an ethereal touch, blending seamlessly with Andrew's guitar. The receptive audience was treated to a mesmerizing experience that also contributed to a worthy cause.

This performance marked Music in the Regions' journey, promising more transformative musical encounters. It underscored music's power to uplift, inspire, and foster community connection.

Suite Mágica with Blanch and Granger was a testament to art's soothing influence, leaving a resonant memory of their harmonious partnership. As the melodies lingered, so did the impact of their contribution to the Nundle Community Garden's growth.

Have your say on waterway approvals

Have you tried to get planning approval for works to protect or rehabilitate your riverbank from flooding?

As part of the Riverbank Rehabilitation Project, Local Land Services is undertaking work to better understand the challenges landholders experience when seeking approvals for waterways and riverbank works across NSW.

This project includes an anonymous survey to capture insights on the time, cost, effort and approval processes landholders navigate when undertaking riverbank rehabilitation works, and to identify where improvements could be made to better support landholders in the future.

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.
