Isis River restoration at 'Stewarton' on the Epping Biodiversity Corridor

This project establishes 4,160 (5,200-20% tree/shrubs) + 1,000 understorey plants along 2.6km of the Isis River (26ha) at its confluence with the Macquarie River on the property ‘Stewarton’ owned by James Walsh. This project is part of a larger $5.6million project for which Greening Australia (with partners NRM North, DPIWE, TLC, BHA, TFGA, UTas) has conducted 480ha of revegetation & restoration during the last 2 years. We are working on 2 biodiversity corridors, one at Ross & the other centered on Epping. This 2nd biodiversity corridor crosses the threatened Northern Midlands Bioregion from Epping to the Central Plateau via the Isis River & ‘Connorville’ (owner Roderic O'Connor), with 160ha of restoration we established in 2014.
