There will be federal govt funding for "Caring for Country": - SGLC
network has been applying for funding for projects:
But only for on-ground works. E.g. weed control and willow removal.
Also the 1m trees project.
Funding will probably be released after June 09. There is cause for
optimism. There is funding for small equipment grants- deadline is
end of March.
• Aim of the group is to care both for own land and the local area
FRLCG has become rejuvenated - there have been farm walks and
speakers
Suggestion: The FRLCG lobby State Govt to bring back and enhance
DPI action on noxious weeds e.g. ragwort.
Next meeting will address plans for projects. Small equipment grant
discussed. A digital camera would be helpful as the old one is not
working. This would help get early slides of FRLCG revegetation
work onto disk. After discussion it was felt that the first preference
would be for a projector, 2nd preference for a digital camera.
Speaker: contact Dr Colin Young, and team up with the Agnes LCG
Action Rae Knee.
