Jarrahmond Landcare Group Approaches Major Biodiversity Milestone 23rd Apr 2026

The Jarrahmond Landcare Group is closing in on a remarkable environmental milestone, with members documenting nearly 2,000 species of plants and animals within their local area.

As part of their ongoing citizen science project, LANCANASTAR (Landcare Nature Study Area), the group recently announced at a general meeting that they have recorded 1,908 species—just 92 short of their 2,000-species goal. This achievement is based on an impressive 9,808 individual observations contributed by 235 people.

A striking new cultural artwork has been unveiled at the shelter shed in the carpark at the base of Newmerella Hill, marking an important milestone for community, culture, and environmental storytelling in the region.

Installed on 31 March 2026, the mural is the work of acclaimed Gunnai artist Ray Thomas, whose award-winning practice draws on the stories, symbols, and deep connections of his people and Country. His work, exhibited in galleries across Australia and internationally, brings a powerful cultural presence to the Old Coach Trail (Rail Trail).
