Applications for the grants close 5pm Tuesday 11th September. Successful projects must be completed by 30th April 2013. In-kind contribution is not required and landholders may undertake the works themselves or engage a contractor.

LPLN News: Newsletter

The Loddon Plains Landcare Network has just published the first edition of it's new newsletter, the LPLN News.

The LPLN News is a new initiative of the network to increase sharing, communication and to generate enthusiasm around upcoming projects and events in the network. 

The newsletter contains news coming from the network and its groups. You’ll find upcoming events and articles of interest relating to natural resource management and Landcare. You’ll also find any news coming directly from the LPLN Landcare Facilitator, Anthony Gallacher.

The newsletter will be a great way to share the collective stories of the Loddon Plains Landcare Network, both amongst groups and with the wider community.

The release schedule has yet to be finalised, but a notice of each edition release will be posted on this blog. Groups will receive an email version and a hard copy.

The network would like to start an e-list for people interested in receiving the newsletter by email. People can be added to the e-list by contacting Anthony Gallacher with their email address.
