Contact our stewardship team

Our stewardship team support rural land managers to be the best stewards they can be – embracing their role in caring for land, water and nature.

We have three district teams covering the Fleurieu Peninsula, Eastern Hills and Plains, and Adelaide Hills districts. Alongside them, our climate-ready agriculture team focuses on strengthening the resilience and long-term sustainability of farming systems.

Together, our teams help rural land managers connect with groups, access information, receive support, and apply for funding to enhance natural resources and prepare their businesses for future conditions.
