SUMMARY:Staying Ahead of the Carbon Curve - Opportunities & Options for Low Emission Farming
DESCRIPTION:As markets\, banks and insurance companies seek to meet their carbon emission commitments\, farmers may need to start demonstrating low emission farming practices through their supply chain. \nJoin us for two practical and interactive workshops to find out what you need to know! On day 1 local soil scientist Declan McDonald will discuss how improving soil health also increases soil carbon. He’ll provide an introduction to the principles and practices of carbon farming. Farmers are encouraged to bring their questions and to discuss management challenges to prioritise carbon capture. \nLocal farmer and presenter Nick Dudley (who has worked for on carbon projects for Ag Vic) will cover: \n-How to calculate and track your farm’s emissions \n-Using carbon accounting tools \n-An intro to developing an on-farm emissions action plan \nOn Day 2 Nick Dudley will support participants to enter their farm details into a digital tool to calculate emissions and look at actions they can take on-farm to offset these. \nDeclan and Nick are both engaging speakers\, with 45 years of experience between them.\nFarmers should attend both sessions to get the full picture and make the most of this independent & free learning opportunity. \nWhen & where:\nDay 1 Thursday 11 September 10.15am\nregistration for 10.30 – 2pm\nLeongatha Memorial Hall \nDay 2 Thursday 18 September 10.30-1pm\nKorumburra Community Hub\nMorning tea and lunch provided both days. \nRegistration: Please register via this link\nMore information contact Cassie cassie@sgln.net.au 0448 739 559

SUMMARY:Pedal & Plant 2025
DESCRIPTION:Join us to celebrate Landcare Week! Pedal\, walk\, hop\, skip or join a guided tour along the Great Southern Rail Trail for fun and tree planting at Ruby! \nSouth Gippsland Landcare Network and South Gippsland Shire Council are again partnering with Arawata Landcare Group for hours of fun planting 1500 indigenous trees\, shrubs and grasses by the side of the Great Southern Rail Trail. \nWe’ll meet at Ruby Hall and make our way by bike or guided walking bus to the planting site\, about 1.5 kilometres along the trail. We’ll learn about the native plants and animals already living along the rail trail as we walk. At the planting site\, there will be plant guards to decorate\, which will not only protect our seedlings from browsing animals but also form an outdoor art gallery. \nOur fabulous friends from Leongatha Rotary and Leongatha Lions Club will provide a tasty lunch afterwards. \nFor more information on South Gippsland Landcare Network please see: Home | South Gippsland Landcare Network\nFor more information on Arawata Landcare Group please see:  Arawata Landcare Group | Humanitix \nThis event has been made possible by the generous donations from the South Gippsland Seed Bank and SGLN Koala Fund. \nRegister at: https://events.humanitix.com/pedal-and-plant-2025 \n

SUMMARY:Giant Gippsland Earthworm Field day
DESCRIPTION:Join us to learn about the threatened Giant Gippsland Earthworm (GGE)\, actions being taken to protect it\, and an innovative research study. \nDr Beverley Van Praagh has been studying and working to protect the GGE for over 30 years. She will tell us all about this secretive species that spends its whole life underground\, including:\n– Where GGE’s occur\n– How landholders can find GGE colonies on their property\n– What we can do to protect this threatened species \nDr Michael Alberton (Principal Ecologist at Water Technology) is measuring the soil moisture\, temperature and oxygen below the ground\, in and around GGE colonies on a farm at Arawata. This pilot study will run for 18 months. Michael will share the preliminary results of this research\, which is helping us learn more about the conditions GGE’s need to survive (in our changing climate). \nWe will also visit a GGE colony near by. Just keep in mind the worms stay underground but we might be lucky enough to hear one \nWe’ll also share another exciting project which is just starting – a census of the GGE – and will share a new app we have developed that landholders will be able to use to record the location of GGE colonies. \nPlease register https://events.humanitix.com/giant-gippsland-earthworm-field-day \nmore info email cassie@sgln.net.au \nThis project received grant funding from the Australian Government’s Saving Native Species Program.

SUMMARY:Revegetation of a Riparian Zone - Tarwin River Walk
DESCRIPTION:Join Nerrena Tarwin Valley Landcare for a river walk to see revegetation along a section of the East Tarwin branch of the Tarwin River. The one-to-two-hour walk will be guided by Matt Bowler from West Gippsland CMA. Arrive between 1.30 and 2 PM for a 2 PM start. \nAll welcome but please RSVP to Phil on 0428 642 371 to help with logistics. \nIn 2015 WGCMA commenced works to restore this section of the riverbank. At the time it was unfenced and thick with willow trees. The willows were poisoned and removed\, the riverbank was fenced and some 2\,000 natives were planted. The following year the billabong on the flats was also fenced and planted. \nCome and see the progress of this “good news” story. \nLocation: drive into the paddock through a road gate at approximately 145 Meeniyan-Nerrena rd\, Meeniyan. This is more or less opposite “Ballanard”\, a dairy farm at 140 Meeniyan-Nerrena rd. Join us at the river after driving/walking through the paddock. Look out for the sign. Unless it’s wet you will be able to park in the paddock. \nWhat to bring: sturdy shoes and suitable clothing. Most of the walking will be done in the paddock along the fence-line with the river bank\, which is flat and not overgrown. You may also wish to walk within the revegetation zone but this is obviously overgrown. \n  \nNote: this is not an SGLN event.

SUMMARY:Biolinks Map - online information session
DESCRIPTION:South Gippsland Landcare Network is excited to have started work on the South Gippsland Biolinks Map. This is a key action of the Biodiversity Protection Plan. \nWhen complete\, the Biolinks Map will be an online tool to help understand how native species move through our region. It will draw on a range of land cover and biodiversity datasets\, as well as stakeholder input\, to model areas of core habitat in the landscape\, and the pathways different species may use to move between them. This will give us a map showing the key locations and movement corridors across the region\, their relative importance and where opportunities exist to improve or establish pathways. \nThis will help to inform where on-ground action will have the most impact\, so we can focus our efforts in the most effective way. \nJoin us to meet James and Yasmin who are developing the map\, learn about how the biolinks map will be created and what it will look like\, and how you can get involved. \nmore info cassie@sgln.net.au \nRegistrations \nimage credit: Lechner 2017
