Lake Baroon Caring for Catchment - A history by Elaine Green

‘Lake Baroon, Caring for Catchment’ a history of one of Maleny’s most successful community groups, Lake Baroon Catchment Care.
In a world of environmental woe this is a great story, one that deserves to be celebrated and recreated in other catchments. Up here in the Hinterland, we live right at the centre of it.
Lake Baroon, Caring for Catchment, is a history of the region and how a different approach to catchment care – one that involved listening to those who live and farm in the region – has delivered remarkable results. It explains how this group grew, over a period of 25 years, from having one person employed for half a day a week, to the single most successful catchment care group in Queensland, with two full-time and four part time staff and a frankly astonishing budget that matches their achievements.
