Welcome to our new Regional Agricultural Landcare Facilitator

Sarah has recently joined our team and we want you to get to know her a little better, here is a little message from her.

Greetings to all Landcare members,
My name is Sarah Carter. I have recently joined the TRLA team as the new Regional Agriculture Landcare Facilitator. I grew up on a mixed farm near Burren Junction, NSW, and then went on to study Applied Science in Conservation Technology in Lismore NSW. I was an active member of an urban Landcare group while in Lismore. I have lived in many places in this beautiful country, from Cape York, Central Australia, Blue Mountains, Sydney, and Gunnedah. I have worked in natural resource management, community development/engagement, and training, and worked closely with First Nations people and communities.

I started my interest in regenerative agriculture during the earlier part of Covid and am completing a Graduate Certificate at Southern Cross University.

In some ways, I wish this was around when I finished high school.

In my own time, I love gardening, growing food, bushwalks, cooking, and playing music. 

I look forward to meeting you in the field or at meetings/workshops.
