Northern Rivers Intrepid Landcare Event April 9th 
This Grass 'n' Creeks event has been created by young people, for young people, to act & lead with Landcare! Our new local Intrepid group are excited to be working with Whian Whian Landcare and the Dorrobee Grass Reserve Trust to bring forth this day of Landcare, connecting to country, munching on local food, making new friends, and most of all, fun!
Sunday, April 9 at 8:45 AM - 6 PM
The day will be shared across two locations, a Whian Whian Landcare site & the Dorrobbee Grass Trust Reserve
The group have said "Northern Rivers Intrepid Landcare are stoked to present: 'Creeks 'n' Grass' - our official Launch. The event follows on from 'Weeds 'n' Waves' which kicked off last year as an introduction to Intrepid Landcare in the Northern Rivers. Over the past two months, our team of young leaders have been working alongside the very supportive Landcare Networks across the Northern Riivers to co-create and design the kind of fun we want to have while making a difference, learning and meeting rad new friends!"
