About the workshop
Join us for an engaging and practical workshop exploring holistic weed management for bushland areas. Whether you’re a landholder, volunteer, community group member, or simply passionate about caring for the local environment, this session will provide valuable insights into sustainable and long-term approaches to weed control.
Learn how to identify common weeds, understand their impact on native ecosystems, and explore integrated management techniques that support healthier, more resilient bushland. The workshop will also cover practical strategies for prevention, restoration, and ongoing land stewardship.
This is a great opportunity to connect with others who share an interest in protecting and enhancing our natural landscapes, ask questions, and gain practical knowledge you can apply at home or within your community.
A free morning tea will be provided. All experience levels are welcome.
