Tell us about your experience covenanting!

What is a conservation covenant?

A conservation covenant is a voluntary agreement between a landowner and a covenant provider to help the landowner protect and manage the environment on their property. It is registered on the title of the land and usually applies only to the bushland to be protected. It does not affect ownership of the land, and is usually permanent. The terms of the agreement are negotiated between the landowner and the covenant provider.
