Our Philosophy

We are passionate about applying ecological processes to achieve cost effective outcomes for our clients.  These processes comprise more than just biodiversity services, they can be harnessed to improve business productivity and address complicated site issues.

Our business provides personalised attention to each project and high-quality outputs.  The diverse nature of our business enables development of well-rounded, pragmatic outcomes, tailored to site-specific requirements.

Our Revegetation Philosophy

We are passionate about the design, establishment and management of plant communities that are resilient, require minimal management and cost less to produce. 

We believe that a ‘ground up’ approach, which floods a site with coloniser species, is much quicker and more effective than traditional ‘top down’ revegetation methods at producing resilient and functional plant communities.  Using coloniser species is the first step in the successional process towards building these plant communities.  Our experience has shown that in providing this catalyst for natural ecosystem processes we can reduce weed management requirements, improve soil health and increase invertebrate and vertebrate activity.  All of these components contribute to stable and functional plant communities.

A Successional Approach

Succession Ecology's unique approach to revegetation involves a ‘ground up’ methodology, which floods a site with seeds of native colonising species. The use of colonising species provides rapid site stabilisation and initiates the process of recovery to build ecosystem function. These species add organic carbon to the soil, attract invertebrates, deposit seed, compete with weeds and provide cover. Colonising species in the arid zone can reproduce within 6–8 weeks of rainfall, bolstering the seedbank. These attributes provide a great catalyst for building ecosystems in the arid zone.
