Bunhybee Grasslands is a 49 hectare / 120 acre conservation property. It's 35km south of Braidwood, in southern N.S.W.

The property's heritage value was discovered by Rainer Rehwinkel in about 2005. It was acquired by the Nature Conservation Trust (NCT) in 2007, with the purpose of establishing legal protection for it, and then on-selling the property.

Linda Spinaze purchased the property from NCT, with effect from 22 December 2008. Here is the story about how Linda came to be steward of the property. And here is the second reason why Linda bought the property.

98% of the site is subject to a Conservation Agreement. This is effectively a permanent covent, inscribed on the title; which means that the present and all future owners must conserve it in compliance with that Agreement. The other 1 hectare is available for a dwelling.
