Our hearts go out to our friends at ReForest Now and their local community of Mullumbimby — a town hit hard by the floodwaters. While the community rallies together to recover, there is some sunshine to deliver.
As of February 2022, the outcomes achieved by the ReForest Now team and their partner Aussie Ark/Wild Ark are pretty special.
To assist Aussie Ark in bringing their vision of a thriving 1,500 hectare wildlife sanctuary to life, ReForest Now has undertaken extensive bush regeneration and reforestation works to restore a large, contiguous area of degraded forest.
ReForest Now sent crews to Upper Mongogarie (25km southwest of Casino) to completely transform this area in October/November 2021. A 10-person team spent 6 long days regenerating existing patches of forest on the site. A few weeks later 25 of their team spent 3 rainy days planting 23,258 trees — a record achievement!
This project utilised funding from multiple sources but produced one extraordinary conservation outcome.
