SUMMARY:Slow Mushrooming - identifying edible fungi (Sunday)
DESCRIPTION:Fungi are diverse\, delicious and sometimes deadly. With interest in foraging for wild food on the rise\, learning to accurately identify fungi reduces both poisoning risk to humans and harm to the environment. This event will also be useful for those who just want to learn to identify fungi (and not collect for eating). \nWooragee Landcare is delighted to again host Alison Pouliot – ecologist\, photographer and renowned presenter\, for these popular sessions. \nDeveloping the skills to find fungi requires slowness\, not speed. The workshop will focus on assisting participants to identify a few edible species thoroughly\, rather than many superficially. We will engage multiple senses to examine the major diagnostic features of edible fungi alongside their toxic lookalikes. \nWe will also follow the principles of ‘ecological foraging’ – an approach based on care\, conservation and an understanding of ecosystem dynamics. \nFollowing an interactive indoor identification session around a specimen table we will then head to a private property to search for fungi. \nPlease note that no fungi will be collected during this event. \nPlease bring your lunch. We will provide tea/coffee etc and a bikkie when you get there. \nBookings: https://events.humanitix.com/copy-of-slow-mushrooming-identifying-edible-fungi-2024-sunday \n$45 for Landcare members; $55 non-Landcare members. \nMore information 0427 287 285 \nThe landcare member price applies to a member of any landcare group\, and you are welcome to join Wooragee landcare if you’re not a landcare member. \nNote the workshops on Saturday and Sunday are the same\, so just book for one of them. \nThis workshop is being presented by Wooragee Landcare. Financial support from Friends of Chiltern Mt Pilot National Park\, Chiltern Landcare and Wooragee Landcare has enabled us to subsidize the tickets.

SUMMARY:Lots about nestboxes
DESCRIPTION:Come and find out why you should consider putting up nest boxes – they can be put up in urban areas too. We will look at Wooragee Landcare’s nest box program and hear what animals have been observed using the boxes.  Nest boxes are one of the tools we can use to increase habitat for wildlife and is a great activity to get younger people involved in Landcare activities. \nThe topics we will cover are: \n\nWhy nestboxes are good\nAn overview of the group’s nest box locations\, and data recording.\nResults of recent monitoring and discussion of the species we have found using the boxes.\nInformation on arboreal (tree dwelling) mammals including some of the threatened species in our area.\nDetails on current knowledge of box designs and specifications\, including recent innovations in thermally efficient box design. We will have prices and contact details for purchasing.\nHow to maintain boxes and common problems associated with nest box projects.\n\nWe will also showcase some of the latest monitoring camera technology (pole camera) and inspect some of the boxes located in the primary school reserve. \nOur presenter Jim Blackney has been involved in nest box projects throughout the North East and is co-author of the “Nest Box Guide for North East Victoria” produced by Swamps Rivers and Ranges. \nThe first part of the session will be in the hall\, then afternoon tea\, and the second part next door looking at the nest boxes in the school grounds. \nWear strong covered in shoes. Keep warm or cool and shaded depending on the weather. A cuppa and afternoon tea will be provided. \nBooking essential: events.humanitix.com/lots-about-nest-boxes \nFor more information call Jim 0459 622 260
