January 5th, 2024‘Become a nature steward’: council invites locals

The Hepburn Shire Council is inviting local residents to participate in an upcoming Nature Stewards course.

Nature Stewards is a short educational course which aims to foster a connection with nature and provide ways to get active for the environment.  

In autumn 2024, the council will co-host the Nature Stewards program in partnership with the Mitchell and Macedon Ranges Shires and the Victorian National Parks Association.  

The ten-week program will allow people to discover more about their local environment, connect them with others in their community, and help them learn how to volunteer for nature as a citizen scientist, advocate for nature or a nature guide.  

More information about how to participate is currently available via the council’s website.
