Take Home Propagation Kit
With help from Wellington Shire Council, YYLN is launching an exciting new propagation project! YYLN is creating propagation kits (tubes, racks, potting mix, fertiliser and seed) and offering regular workshops on how to grow plants at home for your own use and/or Landcare projects. The propagation process takes around 6 months. There will be a small cost for those growing plants for their own projects ~ 20c/plant. (Note: Nursery-bought plants are around $1.20 - $1.50 each!)
So if you would like to be part of this exciting new initiative, text Bronwyn Teesdale on M. 0428 559 582. Subsidised site visits
Interested in submitting a VLG grant in the April/May round and don't know where to start?YYLN wants to assist you in preparing project plans and has engaged Seeds of Gippsland to work with interested members through individual property site-visits. The cost of a site visit will be shared between the landholder and YYLN - $250 each. Site visits aim to accurately map out the proposed project, determine costings, provide advice on species selection etc...
If you want help with your next project, follow the link below for more information and to submit your Expression of Interest. Note - there will be a maximum of 20 site visits this round, so hurry before VLG grants are announced! |
