Glen Innes East - Restoring Habitat and Creating Biodiversity Corridors

This project will address the lack of connectivity between scattered areas of remnant vegetation on privately managed land in the extensively cleared landscape of the Glen Innes district in northern NSW. Through the project new areas of mixed native seedlings will be established to increase the area of native habitat available for wildlife. We will encourage planting species known to be present in the 2 Threatened Ecological communities present locally - New England Peppermint grassy woodlands and Upland Wetlands. Private land managers will be engaged to participate in the project through project publicity, a field day event and by participating in planting seedlings on their own properties.
