Landscapes Hills and Fleurieu’s Stewardship Program is their flagship program for helping land managers care for the Hills and Fleurieu landscape.
The program helps people understand and manage the natural systems that sustain their properties – from soils and water to native vegetation and wildlife. Through workshops, educational resources and practical tools, the program builds knowledge and confidence for land managers to take action. It also connects neighbours, community groups, First Nations people, councils and industries, turning individual efforts into collective outcomes across the region.
Stewardship is about shared responsibility. It recognises that everyone who manages land plays a vital role in sustaining the systems that support us all. By aligning on-ground action with regional goals, the program helps ensure that investment, effort and learning are coordinated, transparent and long-lasting. The program provides a unifying framework for caring for landscapes – connecting land managers, scientific evidence and community through practical education and partnerships.
Together, we’re building more resilient landscapes, stronger biodiversity, and thriving rural communities.
“Good stewardship starts at home – one paddock, one creekline, one shared landscape at a time.”
