-
UNE Building, Fitzroy St, Tamworth
18 Places Remaining




Join us for an evening with James Filby – farmer, agronomist, and chief pilot of the Wildseek Koala Project. TRLA is proud to support this groundbreaking project using drone technology to locate and protect koala populations across the region. James will take us behind the scenes , sharing where the team has flown, what they’ve discovered, and how TRLA’s own drone is helping monitor and conserve koala habitat. He’ll also explore the bigger picture—canopy health, habitat protection, and how regenerative agriculture supports both productive grazing and biodiversity.

Upper Mooki Landcare’s Creekbank Stabilization and Water Management workshop

28 Landowners attended Upper Mooki Landcare’s Creekbank Stabilization and Water Management workshop on 15th November.  Presented by landowner and UMLC member Roger Ottery, and UMLC Chair Andrew Wylie, the day was well planned, enabling participants to visit 3 varying sites.  These included observation of a new paddock swale with spill, use of embedded logs to direct creek water flow,  and a demonstration of making and placing Rock Bags and a Rock Mattress directly into the creek.  The day was beautifully catered for by UMLC members and finished with a BBQ on the creek and much ongoing dialogue.  Feedback was very positive and included requests for return visits to monitor the progress of the sites.
