SUMMARY:Postponed - Wetland and Waterway Management on Farms - GB2AS Field Day
DESCRIPTION:We invite you to a Greens Bush to Arthurs Seat Biolink project (GB2AS) field day on waterway and wetland management on farms. This significant field day will host several leading national and local experts: Louise Kerferd from Melbourne Water will discuss waterway and wetland management within the GB2AS Biolink and Mornington Peninsula area; Peter Hazell and Erin Healy from The Mulloon Institute will talk about rehydrating catchments and\nmanaging waterways on farms; and Lance Lloyd from the Western Port Biosphere will discuss wetland management and water stewardship on farms. \nThe health of waterways and wetlands on farms is a key outcome of the GB2AS Biolink project that is implemented through land management planning\, revegetation\, weeding\, pest animal management\, fencing and community education activities. \nThe Mulloon Institute is recognised globally as a demonstrator of sustainable agriculture and environmental regeneration through landscape rehydration and restoration. The Institute demonstrates innovative land management approaches that create healthier landscapes with more resilience to climatic extremes. The Western Port Biosphere works with the community to create a sustainable future for Western Port\, which is done through research\, education\, community engagement\, partnerships and on-ground conservation efforts. \nPlease RSVP by Thursday the 23rd of May at thomas@regeneratingfarms.com.au\nor call Thomas Kennett on 0499 596 493 with any questions. \nDo not attend if you are unwell.

SUMMARY:Planting for the Devilbend Hastings Biolink with Balcombe and Moorooduc Landcare
DESCRIPTION:This will be Balcombe and Moorooduc Landcare’s second working bee for the year – a tree planting morning on a beautiful farm that neighbours with the Yabby Creek Vineyard and backs onto the Woods Bushland Reserve. \nWe will be helping the owner Marc to establish a large (20 acre) revegetation forest on his 120 acre property\, to encourage the native wildlife. We will be meeting there at 10 am to hear from Marc about his goals and plans for the farm\, followed by planting and finishing with a BBQ lunch. \nThe work will be in a gully which may be damp so please bring sturdy footwear\, appropriate weather gear\, and work gloves. Tools and equipment will be provided. \nIt will be an interesting morning\, especially working in with Marc towards his goal of re-creating from a mostly-bare gully to a native bushland for wildlife. \nPlease RSVP by the Sat 18th May for catering purposes.

SUMMARY:MP Farmers Discussion Group - Pest Management
DESCRIPTION:Pest (rabbit) management with Agriculture Victoria \nThe control of rabbits on farms is ongoing and important to stay up-to-date on\, which is why Agriculture Victoria’s leading Biosecurity Officer\, Annie Lamb\, will present the latest information on the topic. Annie will talk with you about rabbit control options\, landholder responsibilities under the Catchment and Land Protection Act 1994 (CaLP) act and some information on foxes. There will also be information sheets on noxious weeds for everyone to take home. \nThis event will take place at the Eco Living Display Centre in the Briars and represents the first-of-two pest management events. In April\, a field day will be run with the Greens Bush to Arthurs Seat Biolink Project that focuses on foxes and feral cats. \nAgriculture Victoria is responsible for administering the CaLP Act\, which is the main article of legislation governing the management of invasive plants and animals in Victoria. For rabbits\, there are a range of control options that landholders can consider\, including: monitoring and coordinating with neighbours\, baiting\, warren ripping\, fumigating and trapping. \nThe CaLP Act does not endorse the use of ferrets\, however\, ferrets have been used traditionally for many years. Sharing some information and insights into this approach\, Clint Yorke from Ambush Vermin Solutions will provide a 30 minute discussion about the use of ferrets to control rabbits and will bring along his ferrets to add to the discussion. This will not be a live demonstration. \nFor all event information\, please see this email – a flyer will be sent in the reminder email. \nWhere:              The Briars “Eco Living Display Centre”\, 450 Nepean Hwy\, Mt Martha\, 3934\nWhen:               Thursday 14th March 2024\nTime:                 10.00am – 10.30am: arrivals and coffee/tea\n10.30am – 12.00pm: Ag Vic talk and presentation \n12-12.30/45: Ambush Vermin Solutions discussion \nTea\, coffee and some snacks will be provided (let me know of any food allergies). Check the weather and please bring your wet weather gear if needed. \nParking instructions:\nOnsite. \nPlease RSVP by Tuesday the 12th of March at thomas@regeneratingfarms.com.au or call Thomas on 0499 596 493 for any questions.
