Integral to Bushcare is the strength of our community engagement and leadership, and we are delighted to introduce you to our new Bushcare Officer, Steve Fleischmann. Steve will be taking over Lyndal’s Bushcare groups and the Remote Program.

Steve has hit the ground running, and you may have already met him on site with our experienced Bushcare Officers.

Steve has extensive experience in bush regeneration projects. In the 90s he worked in Sydney’s Northern Beaches. After completing Certificate III in Conservation Land Management, he enjoyed working on a variety of bushland management projects across the Mountains, Western and South Western Sydney, in environmental sustainability education, and running an organic farm with refugees. He has also been raising two children.

Steve spends as much spare time as he can playing music, going canyoning or taking his kids into the local bushland areas. Blue Mountains City Council Bushcare Team Leader, Sandy Benson, said that Steve’s experience and his friendly attitude make him a brilliant addition to the Bushcare team.

Please welcome Steve to the Bushcare family.
