Bushcare Portfolio
Rose Adams
The Portfolio:
Gecko supports three bushcare groups with promotion, member involvement and involvement in consultation or policy development when required. The three groups are:-
Nicol’s Scrub in Currumbin Valley adjacent to the National Park and Coolamon, the Currumbin Sanctuary property. This is under the supervision of Queensland Parks and Wildlife Service.
Tarrabora Reserve on the north bank of Currumbin Estuary. This is under the supervision of Natural Areas Management Unit of Gold Coast City Council.
Elanora Wetlands on the south bank of Tallebudgera Estuary, west of the M1. This is under the supervision of Natural Areas Management Unit of Gold Coast City Council
Each group undertakes planning, weeding, planting and other maintenance as required of these properties.
Vision:
A rehabilitated area of land which is self sustaining, supportive of native flora and fauna species and forms a vital link in the city’s natural areas.
