Home – Bush Blocks Guardians Inc.

Focused on the preservation of Western Australia’s unique biological and cultural heritage. We have purchased 666ha of land in WA's eastern wheatbelt to be preserved and rehabilitated. 200ha had historically been farmed and we are in the process of revegetating this area contractors have collected local seeds from about 50 species, and 130,000 seedlings being grown and other seed will be direct seeded during winter this year. We borrowed 50 wildlife cameras and have records from a range of habitats over a three month period. We are identified several Aboriginal heritage sites to be preserved and some unique granite rock structures.

Bush Blocks Guardians Inc.

Bush Blocks Guardians Inc. (BBG) is an Australian nonprofit incorporated association and registered charity dedicated to the conservation and preservation of Western Australia’s unique biological and cultural heritage. Established in 2021, the organisation’s core mission is to protect, restore, and manage natural bushland areas, with an initial focus on the Wheatbelt region of Western Australia.

Background and Objectives

BBG was formed by a group of like-minded individuals passionate about conserving Western Australia's environment and cultural heritage. The organisation aims to acquire parcels of land, known as "bush blocks," to safeguard them from clearing and development by attaching protective covenants. Through ownership and management of these lands, BBG seeks to promote:

  • Awareness and enjoyment of the natural environment and rich cultural history among members and the wider community.
  • Scientific research employing non-destructive methods.
  • The enhancement and promotion of Indigenous knowledge and land management techniques.

Conservation Activities

One of BBG’s prominent projects involves the restoration of previously cleared farmland adjacent to the Chiddaarcooping Nature Reserve on Kalaamya Country in Warralakin, Western Australia. This ecologically significant site is part of a biodiversity hotspot and a habitat for several threatened species, including the Malleefowl, Dunnarts, Western Yellow Robins, Bushtail Possums, and Pink Cockatoos.

Restoration efforts include collecting native seeds from surrounding bushland to grow seedlings at the Noongar Land Enterprise’s Boola Boornap Nursery, with hand-planting scheduled during winter seasons to regenerate native vegetation. These initiatives not only enhance biodiversity but also support woodland ecosystems and promote carbon positive outcomes.

Funding and Management

BBG finances its acquisitions and conservation activities through a combination of:

  • Donations, including those that are tax-deductible.
  • Grants sourced from government, philanthropic trusts, and other organisations aligned with its objectives.
  • Crowdsourcing campaigns for specific projects.
  • Membership fees from individuals joining the organisation.

Significance

Bush Blocks Guardians Inc. plays an important role in preserving Western Australia’s natural and cultural environments, contributing to national efforts in biodiversity conservation and ecological restoration. Its collaborative approach includes partnerships with other environmental groups, community stakeholders, and Indigenous enterprises to ensure sustainable land management and ecological resilience.


Bush Blocks Guardians Inc. is listed as a charity with the Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission under ABN 47964577024.
