Hastings Landcare is a not-for-profit organisation operating in the Port Macquarie-Hasting Local Government Area on the Mid North Coast of NSW. We cover from the Maria River in the north to the Camden Haven River in the south, from the Pacific Ocean to the east to Mt Seaview to the west. Catchments areas include the Maria, Hastings, Wilson, Pappinbarra, Thone, Ellenborough and Camden Haven. We stretch to the plateau landscapes of Comboyne and Elands to the coastal corridor from Northside at Port Macquarie through to Crowdy Bay National Park
Hastings Landcare Inc. was formed in 1995 and is a community owned and driven volunteer organisation that supports people caring for the environment, farmland and natural resources of our local region. The group is made up of individual Hastings Landcare members and is run by a volunteer management committee which is elected each year at the annual general meeting. Hastings Landcare both supports and gains support from other Landcare groups making a difference in our region. Hastings Landcare is a member of the North Coast Regional Landcare Network and Landcare NSW.
Hastings Landcare is well respected and connected within the local community. Many new landholders and community members are referred to Hastings Landcare by members, volunteers partners and associates. The group has a continually growing membership and mailing list, in addition to many great partnerships with local organisations.
