Lowland Rainforest of Subtropical Australia Restoration

This project will focus on three main sites of varied vegetation health. Participants will have the opportunity to help restore this critically endangered ecosystem through mostly weed control, monitoring and re-vegetation. Within this model participants will complete site assessments, plant identification, site preparation and planting techniques, small machinery operation and herbicide application. Other components of this project involve seed collection and propagation, nursery operation and maintenance, natural resource management techniques, water quality testing, interview skills, improved job search skills, teamwork and project management.
