The Project is delivered through 3 sub-projects:



  • Biodiversity Incentives - working with landholders to achieve on-ground conservation work on rural and non-urban land; 

  • Seeds for Survival - developing a community seedbank to help address the native seed supply needs of the ACT and region through coordination, education and training in seed collection;

  • Engaging Communities - involves community volunteers in on-ground native vegetation management including seed collection, seedling propagation and establishment;
