Beginning in 1994, in response for a need to include understorey species – not just trees – in revegetation sites for improved habitat and biodiversity the Understorey Network (USN) brings people together with the aim of improving the natural environment whilst learning about native flora. Using a native seedbank, they focus on propagating, preserving and promoting the value of Tasmanian native plants. The re-invigoration of USN in recent years, with a dedicated committee, expanding seedbank, nursery volunteers and growing membership is an important asset for the community.
