Back to EpisodesFleurieu Nursery: Growing Resilience Against Bushfires
Description
In the wake of a devastating bushfire in South Australias Deep Creek National Park, local volunteers at the Fleurieu Coast Community Nursery are leading a native plant revegetation effort. This initiative, part of the Fire Wise project, aims to boost landscape resilience and protect homes, gardens, and wild areas from future fires. The nursery, with funding from groups like the Foundation for National Parks and Wildlife, propagates plants suited to coastal dunes and habitats. Community workshops teach residents about native gardening, weed control, and choosing fire-resistant species. Researchers and volunteers studied local plants performance in the fire, creating a guide listing safer plants for properties and revegetation. This project restores wildlife habitats, stabilizes ecosystems, and prepares the region for future challenges.
