Conservation
Our Dunkeld Conservation team currently manages 12% of the Dunkeld properties, with a target to reach 20%. We are engaged in a diverse range of activities including threatened species programs (eastern quolls, brush-tailed rock wallabies), re-vegetation and weed and pest management. We trade native vegetation offsets from the Victorian Volcanic Plains and Greater Grampians Bioregions.
