After receiving lots of questions about volunteering under Covid 19 restrictions, as well as being involved in discussions about grant programs and future projects, the Victorian Landcare Program and Community Programs teams at the Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning have put together a PDF which provides great information on what you can be doing now to be staying involved with environmental volunteering in a safe manner. Please click the image to download the full document.

If you have any further questions or concerns, please contact your Regional Landcare Coordinator by clicking here, your local Landcare Facilitator, or email landcare@delwp.vic.gov.au or enviro.grants@delwp.vic.gov.au.

A big thank you to Climate Specialist with Agriculture Victoria, Graeme Anderson, who has developed this fantastic YouTube resource for the Growing Southern Gippsland project. Here Graeme summarises some of the climate predictions for Southern Gippsland and presents the climate drivers that influence our weather and climate.
Its 20 minutes of worthwhile viewing so make sure you grab a cup of tea or coffee before you settle in. Happy viewing everyone.
