Take Home Propagation Kit

Picture

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.
