Community & Sustainability

As a member of the McLaren Vale and broader South Australian community, DOWIE DOOLE is proud to be involved with the following organisations and charities.


Biodiversity McLaren Vale

For the past 3 years DOWIE DOOLE has been a partner of Biodiversity McLaren Vale.

Biodiversity McLaren Vale is a joint initiative of local community, industry and government. In simple terms, they remove feral vegetation from creek lines within the McLaren Vale region and replace them with native plant species. They nurture these new seedlings until they are established and then watch, as the new environment flourishes and essential native fauna returns to the area.

Biodiversity McLaren Vale people are volunteers, who do everything from getting dirt under the fingernails at one of their monthly field days and project management to turning the BBQ and pouring the drinks at a BMV social gathering.

Get involved here.
