Athol Glen Sustainable Farm: Revegetate corridor & protect native vegetation

The applicants have recently purchased a small holding of 10 acres. It is in a dilapidated condition and has been neglected for some years. The property is adjacent the Sherwood Nature Reserve. Sherwood Creek runs past the North east boundary with approximately 2 acres of palustrine wetland. The owners would like to develop a sustainable small farm at the same time enhancing the naturally occurring features of the environment. The main features of the project would be: weeding and revegetation of the riparian corridor; protection of native vegetation from livestock and other animals principally with fencing; water quality and soil health and erosion.
