Purpose

Conservation, community and giving back

This weekend is about more than hunting. It is designed to help the wider community understand the connection between responsible hunting, conservation, food, farming, and the land.

  • Learn how hunting supports pest control and conservation outcomes
  • Help protect the native environment by reducing pest animal numbers
  • Understand how food can be gathered responsibly from the land

Meat from the weekend will be donated to a local food bank. If you’d like to get involved, Blue Duck Station is looking for local sponsorship to support meat processing and butchering, helping this experience give back to conservation and the community.
