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.
