In this episode of Made in Lithgow, Brad and Legend sit down with Steve from Lithgow Oberon Landcare, a man who has literally rolled up his sleeves to heal country and community. From restoring creeks and tackling invasive weeds to building habitat corridors for Gang-Gang Cockatoos and leading citizen-science frog monitoring, Steve shares the challenges and rewards of regenerating landscapes across Lithgow and Oberon.

We dive into:

• What Landcare is and how it works locally.
• Restoring waterways and creating wildlife corridors.
• Youth, community, and schools stepping up for the environment.
• The role of Landcare in a transitioning Lithgow economy.
• Why getting involved in local projects is good for the land and the soul.

Whether you’re curious about bush regeneration, worried about weeds, or just want to know how to get started, this conversation shows that every small action adds up to a greener, stronger Lithgow.
