Sowing the Future Field Day at the Euroa Arboretum

Land holders, professionals and anyone interested in direct-seeding and seed production for revegetation is encouraged to come along to a field day on Friday April 27th at the Euroa Arboretum.

Direct-seeding is now regarded as the premier technique for the broad scale re-establishment of native vegetation.

Come and hear the latest thinking on the design of restoration projects and discuss the issues with some of the industry's leading practitioners.

Demonstrations of direct-seeding of native grasses will be a feature of the day, as well as demonstrations of direct-seeding of trees and shrubs, seed production methods and seed collection techniques. How the Goulburn-Broken Indigenous Seedbank functions will also be explained.

The program starts at 9.30am and ends at 4pm with lunch and refreshments provided free of charge.

To find the Euroa Arboretum, exit the Hume Freeway on the Melbourne side of Euroa and head into Euroa. We are the first gateway on the right after you come down off the ramp.

Please RSVP by Monday April 23rd for catering purposes Jim Begley 57 611574 or Sally Mann 0427 127399
