Around 20 community members came together at Eneabba Springs on 29 July to help restore fire-affected habitat and support the future of Western Australia’s endangered Carnaby’s Cockatoo.
The community planting day was delivered by Northern Agricultural Catchments Council (NACC NRM) as part of the House and Home: Safeguarding Native Species program, funded by Mitsui E&P Australia (MEPAU) and Beach Energy. The program supports practical habitat restoration and biodiversity conservation across the Mid West of Western Australia.
Together, participants planted approximately 10,000 seedlings across 10 hectares of fire-affected land. As the vegetation grows, it will help restore important habitat and food resources for Carnaby’s Cockatoos and other native wildlife.
MEPAU is pleased to support NACC NRM and their work to protect native species through the House and Home: Safeguarding Native Species.
