Across the south-east of New South Wales, the people tasked with looking after the land shared how their projects are helping the environment and reconnecting their communities.
Dr Aunty Matilda House – Williams from the Ngambri Local Aboriginal Land Council kicked off the day with an engaging Welcome to Country, followed by an update from the Landcare NSW and Local Land Services program representatives. The breakout sessions featured twenty case-study presentations from enthusiastic Landcarers, government representatives and industry partners.
In his keynote presentation Dr David Lindenmayer discussed the concept of Natural Asset Farming. The insights in this talk were based on twenty-five years of detailed research and monitoring of natural asset farming in south-eastern Australia.
The highlights of the Muster are captured in this short video.
