The Longwood Fires in January 2026 left a devastating mark, destroying homes on our communities, livestock and more than 4,500 kilometres of fencing across Murrindindi Shire. For many local landholders, rebuilding fences is one of the biggest and most urgent steps in recovery.

Through our Purchase a Picket campaign, you can make a practical difference.
 
For just $10, you can purchase one star picket, directly supporting the rebuilding of fences for fire-affected properties.

Proceeds from this campaign will be given to BlazeAid to purchase pickets. They are a trusted and respected charitable organisation already on the ground, working alongside local landholders and volunteers to help rebuild lost fences in Murrindindi Shire.
Every star picket purchased is a small but meaningful step towards restoring farms, securing livestock, and helping our community recover and rebuild stronger together.
 

$10 = 1 star picket.


Donate online today and help us rebuild, one picket at a time.
