SUMMARY:Border Bushwalking Club - Mt Buffalo short and sharp
DESCRIPTION:There are a number of very short walks on Mt Buffalo that give great views.  We often pass them by in favour of bigger walks. Whilst they are all fairly steep\, they are short and I’m in no rush. Participants can chose to do all or some of the walks on offer. \n\nLake View: 2km. Great views of Lake Catani.  Mostly on footpad with a short Rocky bit at the top.\nThe Horn: 1km. 360degree views. A lot of steps with a Rocky part that includes a handrail.\nThe Monolith. 2km. Great views and some history. Narrow track and some steps near the top.\nThe Old Galleries. 1km. Walking through a rocky wonderland.\nCathedral/ Hump. 2km. Walking past spectacular rock formations and ending with a view. The top part is a scramble but isn’t compulsory.\nRollasens Falls or Eurobin Falls.  If people feel like a short walk on the way down we can add one or both of these.\n\nI’m hoping for a sunny September day but if the weather isn’t good I’ll postpone for another day. \nplease phone me to book in. \n\n\n\nGrade 3 Medium\nLeader: Bernadette\nPhone: 0419241687\nParticipant numbers:12\nFinal booking date: TUESDAY Sep 10th\nSome short rocky scrambles\nFor more information and updates about BBC activities\, check www.borderbushwalkingclub.com.au

SUMMARY:Hidden Farm Field Day
DESCRIPTION:Wodonga Urban Landcare Network in conjunction with Leneva Castle Creek Landcare are excited to invite you to a field day to look at landscape restoration in tricky terrain in the Castle Creek catchment near Wodonga. \nHidden Farm’s steep and often rocky slopes are being transformed. The once barren paddocks are now interspersed with shelterbelts to protect stock\, creekline revegetation is thriving and is slowing erosion and improving water quality and planned revegetation to enhance habitat for the Swift Parrot and Regent Honeyeater is literally blossoming. The property owners have demonstrated that there is no time like the present to get started on healing the land and their achievements in a short period of time are truly astounding. \nJoin us to hear their story\, celebrate their success and be inspired to start your own landscape restoration journey. \nBook here Hidden Farm Field Day

SUMMARY:Rooted in Resilience: restoration goals and seed supply forum
DESCRIPTION:Implementation of our restoration and climate resilience recommendations ( the  70% local provenance: 30% climate analogue sourcing of seed or plants) has slipped since a focus on provenance in the mid 2000’s and is increasingly constrained by seed supply. We also have recognized that we have a lot of revegetation that doesn’t achieve “whole ecosystem” restoration\, especially in grassy ecosystems. As larger scale carbon and biodiversity plantings are implemented as part of market-driven activity\, how can we improve the outcomes. How do we address threatened species? How do we address this issue with seed supply? \nThis forum is for practitioners\, researchers\, policymakers and all community interested in the future of seed collection and supply in our region – the Murray and Riverina NSW.

SUMMARY:Border Bushwalking Club - Spring into Tuesday
DESCRIPTION:These walks can’t be called Winter walks anymore but this one is a good way to build some more fitness ready for the mountains. \nThis walk will begin in late morning and go over lunch time. We will explore more of Nail Can Hill including Bakes Trail\, The Lookout (where we will have lunch) and Reedy Dam.  I was going to call it a figure 8 walk but it’s more like a double sided lollipop with us passing by our cars around the half way point. It may be tempting to stop at this point but the best bits are yet to come. \nIt’s all on well formed trails with some short  steep pinches and lots of undulations. \nlength 7.7km height gain 350m \n\nGrade 3 Medium\nLeader: Bernadette\nPhone: 0419241687\nParticipant numbers:12\nFinal booking date: Sun Sep 1st\nFor more information and updates about BBC activities\, check www.borderbushwalkingclub.com.au
