Southern Habitat - Management of natural areas and the restoration of degraded environments. Illawarra, Australia.

After originally training as a landscape architect, Jay Windsor established Southern Habitat in 1998. Originally based in the Shoalhaven area, operations were moved to Wollongong in 2001 to reflect growing sales and opportunities. As the industry grew, so did the company, establishing itself as one of the Illawarra's leading environmental contracting companies, specialising in the management of natural areas and the restoration of degraded environments.
