The owner of this property has been gradually increasing biodiversity areas in key locations of his farm over the past ten years. As an active member of the local Landcare group, the owner has carried out many plantings himself; however, for more extensive projects or where specialist equipment was needed, he enlisted ECS to help.
ECS was engaged to assist with larger-scale tree lots and creek line biodiversity plantings.
ECS also assisted with dam rehabilitation works where ECS fabricated heavy-duty fencing to guide stock access and rock beaching to minimise the plugging of the dam bank.
The dam rehabilitation works have been so successful the site now features on the cover of the NSW Local Land Sustainable Farms brochure for Enhancing Farm Dams.
Services provided under this project:
- Consultation
- Rock beaching
