Why: Over 60% of Australia’s natural resources are managed by private land holders. This is a big task but there are a number of organisations with the skills sets and knowledge that can help you deliver best practice outcomes for your land and the wider catchment.
How: A range of representatives from organisations such as Landcare Illawarra, Southern Rivers Catchment Management Authority, Conservation Volunteers, Small Farms Network as well as local project officers, bush regeneration officers, and landholders will be on hand to give you a guided tour through the property and discuss the range of techniques used in working with native vegetation on private land.
Representatives will be available to take questions and discuss regional projects.
Cost: There is no cost to attend the event and lunch will be provided.
