We have an upcoming Landcare/Coastcare workshop in Old Bar in September!
MidCoast2Tops Landcare Connection is hosting a Climate Ready Adaptation Workshop at Old Bar focusing on Littoral Rainforest. This workshop will be a practical day of learning, led by restoration expert, Peter Dixon, and meteorologist, Graham Creed. We will touch on the basics of climate science and best practice ecological restoration before heading out into the field to observe the real-world effects of climate change on the Littoral Rainforest at Old Bar โ including the visible effects of coastal erosion; Littoral Rainforest Die-back; w**ds and other human-related impacts. We will discuss how we can safeguard the values of our Manning Coastcare GROUP sites and build climate resilience.
You will be given practical restoration tips that support ecosystem functionality and resilience recovery, which you can then apply in your own projects.
This informative workshop is free for all MidCoast2Tops, Hunter Regional Landcare and Manning Coastcare Members, but places are limited. Non-members are also welcome to attend, but a small booking fee will be charged.
