Welcoming The New Committee of Gunnible Landcare Inc


Gunnible Landcare Inc has some new faces following a recent AGM and welcome a new Committee:

 The Executive Committee  for 2026 – 27 is:

President:  Geoff Hood.   

Vice President:  Ian Pine. 

Secretary:  Lynette  Sanson. 

Treasurer:  Margaret Hood.  

 Gunnible Landcare Inc has conducted environmentally focused projects in the Gunnedah area since 1997! 

 Specific activities have included maintenance and beautification of local reserves and travelling stock routes, noxious weed control, protecting ‘at risk’ tree avenues (replacing dead trees, installing tree guards etc) and revegetating private land to encourage biodiversity. Members of the group have a diverse range of skills that are of significant value for new revegetation and habitat restoration projects.

 Recently Gunnible Landcare has also conducted a number of educational workshops, covering biodiversity protection, grazing management and soil health, riverbank plantings and a film event. 

 Gunnible Landcare are working to update their strategic plan, and welcome new members and activity suggestions!

Landcare Learnings: Exploring Permaculture Through Film and Conversation

Our latest Landcare Learnings event on May 12, brought together community members for an inspiring and thought-provoking evening focused on permaculture and sustainable living. With a slightly different format to usual, the event attracted a diverse audience of around 25 attendees, including familiar Landcare faces and newcomers keen to learn more about living sustainably.

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.
