Establish mixed vegetation to connect prior established native vegetation

This project is a large scale biodiverse planting of native indigenous species of trees and shrubs designed to connect remnant native vegetation and prior established tree and shrub areas on and around this property. This property has few remaining native trees as a result of past over clearing and eucalypt `dieback'.This property was part of a Landcare award winning `Engineered Woodland' pilot trial (2007) that established wide spaced tree lines to integrate traditional pasture based agriculture with biodiverse tree and shrub ecosystems.This pilot trial developed tree establishment guidelines for this property and region which will ensure success of this project as well as demonstrating the biodiversity advantages.
