The Lower Blackwood LCDC was formed in 1991. It's Vision is to promote a sustainable agriculture community in the Blackwood Region, where sustainability is measured in economic, social, and environmental terms.

We are currently delivering 15 projects in our Catchment focusing on soil health, soil testing, alternative pastures, feral pig control, riparian fencing and revegetation, regenerative agriculture in practice, eco-vineyards and landholder engagement and extension.
The funding for these projects is a mixture of Federal, State and Local Government as well as participant fees and private sponsorship.

The Lower Blackwood LCDC has successfully initiated, championed and completed many projects that promoted sustainable agriculture in the region and protected the health of the iconic Blackwood River, Hardy Inlet and surrounding catchment.

Our Group as a whole does not currently have any private Sponsors. We do currently receive some individual project sponsorship.
