Glenaroua Land Management Group

Glenaroua district

About the group

Glenaroua Land Management Group formed in 1988, when Landcare was just beginning, and its members live across the lower catchments of Sunday Creek, Kurkuruc Creek, Mollisons Creek and Sugarloaf Creek. The group works on the issues that shape sustainable farming here, weed and rabbit control, dryland salinity, erosion and the loss of habitat across the district. Its best known project is the annual community tree planting run with the Manningham Rotary Club, which in June 2026 brought more than 120 volunteers to Glenaroua Station to put 3,500 native trees and shrubs in along Kurkuruc Creek. The group is DGR-endorsed, so donations are tax-deductible, and it owns a spray trailer, a tool trailer, a direct seeder and an event trailer.
