Grand Opening of Powuppoon Haus

Black & More were pleased to attended the recent opening of TSRA’s new LMSU building, now proudly named: Powuppoon Haus.
The ceremony, that included a blessing of the building and a Welcome to Country, was attended by Board members, rangers and staff of the LMSU along with members of the Black & More team.
Powuppoon is the Traditional Kaurareg name for a large pheasant-like bird. The Powuppoon is considered to be “passionate about its surroundings, determined, steadfast and a conservationist, always seeking to preserve natural things” (Mr T Savage, 2021)
Like the Powuppoon, the TSRA strives to preserve the unique natural and cultural values of Zenadth Kes for the benefit of all.
We are very proud to have been a part this project for the TSRA. For more information on the great work done by the LMSU go to https://www.tsra.gov.au/the-tsra/programmes/env-mgt-program

We are very excited to announce the recent opening of our new office in Robert Street, Atherton.

The decision to expand our presence into The Tablelands was a logical step in our business due to the high demand of work we have had in the area and a desire to provide even more quality outcomes for our clients.  

The office will be managed by Black & More Director, Greg O’Brien, who says;

“Although we have been doing a lot of work in the region for many years now, having an office in Atherton will enable us to provide an even more personal and hands-on experience for our clients. We are looking forward to providing the region with many more outstanding project outcomes in the years ahead.”

Black & More have been excited to be a part of the renewal of the Noosa North Shore Beach Campground. After a $3.2 million face-lift, the popular holiday spot has seen some significant improvements, with a focus on improving water treatment on site.  A total of 43 powered sites are now available along with nearly 50 unpowered camping spots.
