Restoring landscapes across the Mount Alexander Region

24th August 2014 – Direct Seeding Workshop in Campbells Creek

Posted on 14 August, 2014 by Connecting Country

The Friends of Campbells Creek Landcare group would like to invite landholders interested others to participate in an information day on  direct seeding techniques on Sunday 24th August, 2014.

The day’s activities will be a demonstration of the advantages of direct seeding of native plant species.  It will be a great opportunity for land owners looking for an economical way to restore native vegetation on their properties.

The workshop will be presented by experienced local direct seeding experts Ian Higgins & David Milsom.

Two methods will be demonstrated to attendees.  A manual technique ideal for small scale applications.  Also, a mechanical method suited to any large scale revegetation project.

Demonstrations start at 10.00am and go through the morning until 12 noon.

Demonstration site location: 250 metres South of the end of Lewis Drive, Castlemaine.  Follow the signs along the walking/cycling trail.  Parking available.

A light lunch will be supplied for attendees.
