BLERF
The Crossing has been successful with the Bushfire Local Economic Recovery Fund: Community Led Recovery and Regeneration Education Hub for South East NSW. As a result, we are able to undertake major fire-safety infrastructure and landscape changes.
We are also offering community events, workshops, leadership training, traineeships, and more for our local community. Follow us on Facebook and Instagram @thecrossingland to find out what’s happening on the property, and what community events are coming up.
This local Economic Recovery project is jointly funded by the Commonwealth and the New South Wales Government under the Disaster Recovery Funding Arrangements.
Above: rebuilding the chicken run and covered orchards is part of the first stage of the Crossing BLERF project. The covered orchard is built with fire-retardant materials and will protect the camp from ember attack in a fire. Why not come along to a workshop and learn more about our fire strategies?
