Beyond Soil Sustainability

Upper Mooki Landcare conducted a very successful workshop “Beyond Soil Sustainability: Wisdom from Gabe Brown, Col Seis & Walter Jehne” on March 3rd 2025.

Originally planned to be held at the historic Windy Woolshed, a wild storm resulted in the woolshed roof being damaged and the venue moved to the Theatre Royal in Quirindi.  Liverpool Plains Shire Council provided support to bring the Theatre out of mothballs, and it was fabulous to see a full theatre with around 350 people attending.

Jason Allen provided a thought provoking Welcome to Country including the Yurrandaali Dreamtime Animation - Creator of the Liverpool Plains https://youtube.com/watch?v=CWpNHfprIKg&si=qKM42zu9vGRtz0Dn

Gabe, Colin and Walter are recognised across the world as leaders in regenerative agriculture and their presentations were testament to their depth of knowledge and ability to share their wisdom and experience – truly Regen Rock Stars!

Stuart Austin proved to be an excellent MC, particularly in managing lively panel sessions with questions coming live from the audience and through a Whats App group created for the day, which is providing ongoing communication for participants.

Suzannah Cowley from Nviro Media managed radio and TV coverage, and is supplying podcasts.  Nicky Chirlian, Susan Wilson and Kate Spry provided TRLA support to the event and Wayne Chaffey rounded off the day with a vote of thanks to speakers and organisers.
