Regional Restoration

Each year, we deliver and support large-scale restoration projects that increase canopy cover, rebuild habitat, and strengthen biodiversity across Australia. Our work spans hundreds of hectares, restoring degraded landscapes and generating measurable climate, health and community wellbeing benefits.

Upcoming Projects

We work with landholders across Australia to develop large-scale, mixed native-species restoration projects on their land.

These projects are funded by donors who want to invest in landscape regeneration and/or balance their carbon footprint through native tree planting. Donor contributions cover the full cost of site preparation, planting, and ongoing monitoring. Landholders retain full ownership of their land but commit, through a formal agreement, to protect and care for the regenerating vegetation.

Regenerate Australia does not accept funding from oil and gas project developers, or from organisations that are not genuinely committed to carbon reduction.

Current Planting Projects

Bencubbin, WA

Traditional Owners: Ballardong Noongar
Why It’s Important: Located on a working farm, this planting includes native sandalwood and will create a natural wind buffer to reduce erosion, improve soil quality and restore biodiversity to the area.

Borden, WA

Traditional Owners: Koreng Noongar
Why It’s Important: We’re working with industry experts to test how well a variety of native trees grow and sequester carbon on salt-affected land. The results have the potential to improve the approach to tackling salinity across Australia.

Brookton Saltland, WA

Traditional Owners: Ballardong Noongar
Why It’s Important: This project aims to restore health to degraded land that has been badly impacted by salinity and water logging. By revegetating the area with a biodiverse mix of salt-tolerant species, the aim is to prevent further degradation and provide shelter for native animals and livestock.

Brookton Sandalwood, WA

Traditional Owners: Ballardong Noongar
Why It’s Important: After decades of extensive clearing, much of the soil in this region is fragile and prone to wind and water erosion. By planting a biodiverse mix of species, including native sandalwood, the aim of this project is to stabilise and regenerate eroded land, and encourage the return of biodiversity to the area.

Cranbrook, WA

Traditional Owners: Minang Noongar
Why It’s Important: This project is located on a working farm next door to the Stirling Range National Park. The aim is to create wildlife corridors that connect to the Park, as well as plant areas at risk of salinity to maintain the overall health of the land.

Eurardy, WA

Traditional Owners: Nanda
Why It’s Important: Located in one of only 36 global biodiversity hotspots, Eurardy is home to more than 500 native plant species. This project will restore native vegetation to more than 1,300 hectares of cleared land – protecting the land from further degradation and habitat loss.

Gabbin, WA

Traditional Owners: Ballardong Noongar
Why It’s Important: This property has experienced severe wind and water erosion in recent years. By planting a mix of native shrubs and trees, including native sandalwood, our aim is to protect the land from further degradation and create habitat for native fauna.

Manypeaks, WA

Traditional Owners: Minang Noongar
Why It’s Important: This project will provide critical habitat for the endangered Noisy Scrub Bird. This special bird is on the IUCN’s Red List and is a Priority Species on the Government Threatened Species Action Plan. We will be restoring an ex-farming property with a biodiverse selection of native trees and shrubs, benefiting the Noisy Scrub Bird and many other native fauna species.

Nimbin, NSW

Traditional Owners: Widjabul
Why It’s Important: A combination of bush regeneration and planting, this project will create a wildlife corridor near two national parks. The aim is to restore previously cleared grazing land to a thriving forest, increasing habitat for a range of endangered species, including koalas.

Porongurup, WA

Traditional Owners: Minang Noongar
Why It’s Important: This site is directly adjacent to Porongurup National Park – an area known for its astounding biodiversity. Having previously been cleared for agriculture, the landholder wishes to restore native vegetation and canopy cover to the property; ultimately providing a place for tourists to camp amongst the trees and connect with nature.

Talbot, WA

Traditional Owners: Ballardong Noongar
Why It’s Important: This project will increase habitat and food sources for native birds, including Black Cockatoos. The project also seeks to improve the water quality of the creek running through the property, benefiting both humans and animals alike.

Tootanellup, WA

Traditional Owners: Minang Noongar
Why It’s Important: Forming part of the much larger Gondwana Link Project, this planting provides a strategic link between nature reserves. A biodiverse species mix has been designed to replicate the remnant bush surrounding the site with the aim to increase habitat for native animals and restore biodiversity.

Warralakin, WA

Traditional Owners: Marlinyu Ghoorlie
Why It’s Important: This project will restore native vegetation to cleared parts of an ex-farming property; extending an existing Nature Reserve and providing habitat for a range of woodland species. The project will also connect areas of existing bush, creating wildlife corridors for native fauna, including the endangered Malleefowl.

Upcoming Planting Projects

Hi Vallee, WA

Yued Noongar Country

Restoring endemic species

This remarkable 1,800-hectare property is renowned for its significant conservation efforts, preserving a substantial portion of native Kwongan heathland – an area known for its exceptional biodiversity, including rare and priority species.

Planning is underway to restore the remaining 1,400 hectares of previously cleared farmland to re-establish endemic species in the landscape.

Raukkan, SA

Ngarrindjeri Country

Supporting a community-led conservation vision

Raukkan – meaning ‘meeting place’ in Ngarrindjeri – was once a thriving landscape of woodlands, wetlands, and abundant wildlife. Decades of agricultural use have degraded more than 2,000 hectares of culturally significant Country, impacting biodiversity and the health of its ecosystems. Through large-scale restoration of woodland and wetland habitats, this project aims to help revitalise the landscape and support the Ngarrindjeri community’s vision for Raukkan to become a self-sustaining ‘Conservation Community.’ Working alongside Ngarrindjeri rangers, the project will restore native vegetation, strengthen ecological resilience, and support the return of culturally significant species.
