Beyond Soil Sustainability

Upper Mooki Landcare conducted a very successful workshop “Beyond Soil Sustainability: Wisdom from Gabe Brown, Col Seis & Walter Jehne” on March 3rd 2025.

Originally planned to be held at the historic Windy Woolshed, a wild storm resulted in the woolshed roof being damaged and the venue moved to the Theatre Royal in Quirindi.  Liverpool Plains Shire Council provided support to bring the Theatre out of mothballs, and it was fabulous to see a full theatre with around 350 people attending.
