Hunter Local Land Services, in partnership with Mid Coast Council, is offering a comprehensive five-part workshop series titled 'Design Your Farm,' tailored for landholders in the Manning Great-Lakes region.
This series offers participants the flexibility to attend all five workshops or select individual sessions that align with their interests and needs. Available in both Taree and Gloucester regions and delivered between March and May workshop topics include:
- Understanding your context
- Finding your starting point
- Intersecting natural areas and productive zones
- Designing to keep out pests
- Knowledge to action: landscape design fundamentals
Hannah Botta, Senior Land Services Officer with the Sustainable Agriculture team said, "These workshops provide farmers with essential tools and knowledge to make informed decisions about their land.
“By understanding the natural and productive elements of their property, participants will be better equipped to create more resilient, sustainable, and profitable farming systems."
