The Westernport Catchment Landcare Network (WPCLN) is a community based network that aims, through community action, to help preserve, protect and enhance the environment of Westernport Catchment by working with Landcare groups, private landholders, government agencies and local businesses to achieve sustainable natural resource management outcomes. Landcare projects include establishment of indig
enous plants, protective fencing, extensive w**d and feral animal control, community education on biodiversity and a host of land management issues and wildlife monitoring. The Westernport Catchment Landcare Network is a not-for-profit organisation. History
The WPCLN covers approximately 2100 square kilometres across the Baw Baw, Cardinia and City of Casey Shires. Our Network has evolved from an original four Landcare groups to fourteen groups scattered across the catchment from Pearcedale in the south west across to Lang Lang in the south east and Harkaway to Nayook in the north and Westernport Bay in the south. Since 1999 we have completed hundreds of on ground projects in partnership with landholders, various government agencies and local government.
