The Walbunja Rangers from Yuin Country visited Mulloon to explore landscape rehydration in action and will help shape the future First Nations Water Skills Certificate.
The Walbunja Rangers are a terrific team committed to land stewardship and cultural preservation in Yuin Country.
Established by Bateman’s Bay Aboriginal Land Council, they work with Local Land Services, National Parks and Wildlife Services and many other partners across Southern NSW, responsible for cultural burns, revegetation, pest management, cultural education, the management of Travelling Stock Routes and more.
They will play a big part in the development of the First Nations Water Skills Certificate, and visited the Mulloon farm for the first time last week. Ryan, Chris and Laura hosted the tour, sharing the history of the Institute and providing a snapshot of landscape rehydration principles and techniques. The team were curious and observant as we toured a range of landscape contexts and demo sites in the sunshine.
We know the future Certificate will benefit enormously from their skills and experience – thanks for a lovely day Andrew, Jim, Robert, Bettina, Jade, Zethan, David and Peter!
This event was supported by the Australian Government through funding from the Climate-Smart Agriculture Program under the Natural Heritage Trust.
