Watershed assists members to carry out projects by coordinating funding applications and procuring and disseminating information. We concentrate on activities that will improve management of soils, erosion, pastures, grazing, native vegetation, biodiversity and water quality.

Projects may be about an issue related to a particular area, such as restoring and revegetating Redbank Creek, improving biodiversity by native vegetation plantings along the railway or maintaining a water-wise garden at AREC as a demonstration project. Other projects may relate to a broad natural resource management issue such as improving grazing management.

An example of this is the 04 NLP (National Landcare Program) funded “Grazing Management for Salinity and Erosion Control” project.
