Season’s greetings to all Neerim District landcarers.
After a successful nest box project run at the Neerim South Primary School, there are some nesting boxes designed for Feathertail Gliders and Antechinus left over.
If you would like to put one up and monitor activity contact me by return email and I can put you in touch with the teacher at the school and we can arrange for you to get one.
Cheers

Peter Ronalds is leading a very interesting discussion on Cathy Briant’s Neerim Junction property on Monday, 19th February.
Cathy runs a Brangus breeding herd and grows multi-species pastures on her 200ha farm at
Neerim Junction and has been trialling regenerative practices for several years.
Between 2018-2023 the Tarago Catchment Healthy Farms Program supported a 4 year
demonstration to increase understanding on how multi species pasture established with Soilkee
technology may be used to benefit both pasture growth and species composition, soil health and
animal productivity.
Peter Ronalds will share the results of the demonstration, and Cathy will show us the paddock,
multi-species pastures, and the livestock. An interesting morning is assured!
The attached flyer has details about the time, location and contact information.
As mentioned above, the project has been supported by the Neerim District Landcare Group’s Tarago Catchment Healthy Farms Program and all Neerim District farmers and Landcare members are welcome to attend.
