“We consist of many, many, many people. When my wife and I moved up to Callington 23 years ago, the first thing we did was find the secretary of our local Landcare Group. Apart from all of the wonderful things that we showed you that we do, by way of plantings and weeding and all of that stuff, it’s been the basis of our friendships that we’ve formed. I’m a bit emotional, but it really is very important. Thank you.” Peter Roberts, President of the Kanmantoo Callington Landcare Inc.

Kanmantoo Callington Landcare Inc (KCLG) was founded in 1994. Although membership has changed since then, the group has continued to work on restoring the biodiversity and habitat of the Kanmantoo and Callington district. For a small group with about 30 active volunteers, their achievements are substantial. This nomination is not about one project. Rather it is about a tireless and dedicated group who have initiated and maintained restoration projects across the area for nearly 30 years.
