Bush Regeneration
Bush Regeneration
Rehabilitating our critical bushland
Dragonfly Environmental are a leading provider of bush regeneration services, working for councils, developers, government bodies and private landholders Sydney-wide.
Bush Regeneration is the practice of rehabilitating a degraded or weed-affected area into a healthy ecosystem of native flora and fauna. It can also involve mitigating the impacts of erosion and soil disturbance.
There are over 30 weeds of National Significance impacting ecological communities across the nation, and, outside of land clearing, these are often the greatest threat to remnant native vegetation. This is why working with an experienced team to deliver correct bush restoration techniques is so important.
We work in a wide diversity of environments, ranging from:
- Saltmarsh and estuarine communities
- Coastal headlands and sand dunes
- Freshwater wetlands and riparian corridors
- Cumberland Plain Woodland (critically endangered)
- Sydney Turpentine-Ironbark Forest
- Ridgetop heath and scrub
- Urban bushland remnants
Many of the spaces we work in are part of endangered or critically endangered ecological communities and require a deep understanding of those spaces and how to tread lightly.
