Southern Beaches Landcare Coastcare Mumirimina Country
Community Caring for Coast & Country. Working on Crown Land and Public Reserves. We love where we live ♡ The land was never ceded.

We acknowledge that we live, meet and care for the land of the Mumirimina people. We pay our respects to the Palawa past and present. Since 1991, Southern Beaches Landcare Coastcare (SBLC) volunteers have been caring for the coastline from Lewisham and Dodges Ferry through Carlton, Carlton River and Primrose Sands. SBLC is an award‑winning volunteer group working across Council and Crown reserves

to restore dunes, protect wildlife habitat, strengthen climate resilience, and deepen local knowledge of this special place. We run regular nature bees, look after local reserves, and deliver projects that support the health and resilience of our Community, Coast & Country.Interested in getting involved? SBLC membership is open to everyone and helps support hands‑on action, community learning, and the long tradition of locals looking after our Coast & Country together. We offer two membership options — Full and Concession — both covering you as the Primary Member plus up to four additional household members. Families, couples, housemates, and carers can all join under one membership; simply include their names and ages when signing up. Memberships run annually, and we’ll send you a friendly reminder when it’s time to renew so you can stay connected and continue supporting the work we do together. Join our membership community — Full $10 | Concession $5

This Volunteer Week, we’re celebrating the quiet generosity that keeps our community connected.

The real value is in the hands, the care, and the love for Country we share.

We’re kicking off the first Saltbush Line Community Planting Day, and you’re invited.

Together we’re returning our locally grown plants to the dunes, strengthening the coastline by working with the landscape, not against it. Every seedling helps stabilise the foredunes at Okines Beach and grows a healthier, more resilient coast for our community.

If you’ve been curious about the Saltbush Line, this is the moment to jump in.

Bring your layers and your good vibes, we’ll supply the plants, tools, guidance, and morning tea from Park Café.

This program is jointly funded by the Australian Government’s Future Drought Fund and the Tasmanian Government.

SBLC, together with Dodges Ferry Primary School, Sorell Council and Hobart Airport Group, is proud to share the new educational signage now in place at Flora Park.

These signs honour the biodiversity, fragility and deep significance of this reserve. It is one of the largest in the Sorell Municipality, safeguarded by the community.

As we mark National Volunteer Week, we’re especially grateful for the people whose hands and hearts keep this place thriving.

We love where we live 💚

This project was made possible with a Hobart Airport Community Grant.

Meet the Tuesday Weeders, the SBLC legends behind small, steady acts of care across the Southern Beaches. They roam from reserve to reserve, working alongside Council to keep our local patches healthy. Different spot each week, same good energy. If this sounds like your kind of morning, jump into our bio and follow the links to membership. Small acts, big impact ✌️
