Event Description

M2T6 -Riparian Restoration

The property has an in-perpetuity PVP on the creek (only about 6Ha, from memory?), and the creek is fenced off and full of privet and trad.  We will go for a walk and invite people to learn about manual methods of control for large woody weeds, strategies for Riparian Restoration, and chat about Trad BioControls.
 

Keen to improve the health of your riparian areas but feeling overwhelmed with weeds? Join your friendly Landcare staff and likeminded locals for a hands-on morning of Action Learning bush regeneration inspiration at the beautiful Great Lakes Paddocks winery. We’ll look at the site’s stock-protected riparian areas and talk about site assessment, strategy, triage and sensible goal-setting for more wins and less frustration. Tools will be available for you to get hands-on, as we dive into practical regen techniques with a focus on managing Privet and other woody weeds, plus the ever-pesky creeping groundcover Tradescantia fluminensis.Morning tea will be provided, plus a light lunch when we knock off. 

RSVPs are essential - please use this link [to come soon]

Event Outcome
We had a walk and talk around a conserved section of the Coolongoolook River where we identified several key weed species and demonstrated manual control methods such cut, scrape and paint for Small leaved Privet; Scrape and Paint for vine weeds such as Corky Passionfruit and Moth Vine.  As well as strategies for restoration of degraded creeklines, prioritisation of weeding effort, and native plant ID.
