How Wetlands Can Benefit Your Farm

11 October, 2023 - 11:30 am to 2:00 pm

Free
An introduction to wetlands, exploring how wetlands might fit within a farming operation.

We believe that integrating wetlands into the environment can benefit biodiversity, but also build community and business resilience in the face of challenges, such as climate change.

There are more opportunities than ever for land managers to receive financial reward for providing ecosystem services such as clean water, and carbon storage.

We want to work with local land managers to provide information, support and guidance on the benefits of wetlands, and the opportunities available to create and restore them.

Join this free online workshop to hear more about the benefits of wetlands to the environment, and to your farm operation, and learn about the financial opportunities available to fund wetland creation and restoration.
