The conservation and restoration of indigenous vegetation have long-term benefits in terms of human health, quality of life and environmental sustainability. This is the guiding principle of Tambo Bluff Landcare Coastcare that strives to protect and enhance the flora and fauna of Tambo Bluff for the benefit of all.Formed in 1993, the Tambo Bluff Landcare Coastcare group covers 40 hectares of public space. This area is a promontory situated on the eastern shore of Lake King, in the Gippsland Lakes. This presentation outlines the work of Landcare volunteers on Tambo Bluff Estate following inappropriate subdivision, which left the area in a poor state in need of extensive revegetation/erosion control interventions. Thanks to the interventions, the area is attracting locals and visitors to its numerous walking tracks.Presenter/s: Glenda Maloney.
