🌿 We Grow Podcast Episode 20: Planting for the Future 🌿

It struck me lately the profound long term impact that we are having when we plant trees to restore native ecosystems. The simple act of putting a seedling in the ground can have a transformative effect on the landscape for centuries into the future.

Tune into this episode to hear about:
🌿 The roles different trees different roles in ecosystem restoration
🌿The different stages of ecosystem recovery, from rapidly growing pioneers to slower growing species here for the long haul
🌿Some of the remarkable species we are replanting in the Sunshine Coast and Hinterland area

💦 New episode! Water Quality and Why What We Do on the Land Matters 💦

The latest shows water quality in the Maroochy and Mooloolah rivers has been declining over the last 10 years and is now rated as 'fair'.

Our aquatic ecosystems are vital for biodiversity, our drinking water and their connection to the ocean.

In this episode, I explain:
✅ What a catchment is and how it functions
✅ The positive impact of increasing native vegetation along waterways
✅ Practical steps you can take in your own backyard to support waterway health

We value our rivers for so many reasons, from the species that live and breed in them to the morning paddles and swims we enjoy in them.

🦅 Why did the bird not want to cross the road? 🤔

In episode 18 of the We Grow podcast I have fascinating chat with Dr. Chris Johnson, a transport ecologist where we discuss this topic and more. You'll hear about:

🦅 Chris's journey from volunteering in landcare, to studying ecology and zoology and now taking an active role in community leadership
🦅 How many wildlife are killed on roads each year and
🦅 The positive impact that well-designed roads can have on wildlife
🦅 How Chris is helping to bridge the gap between research and practitioners
🦅 His involvement in and other community groups

Chris is passionate about community and leadership and how we can use scientific data in the best way to improve landscape connectivity for wildlife. I really enjoyed chatting with Chris, he has so much to share!

🌳 Did you know that private land makes up about 29% of land across Australia, but almost half of threatened species occur in these areas 😲

🐨 Hear about why these properties could help fill in the missing jigsaw pieces across our fragmented landscape.
