Native seed cleaning and extraction workshop 11th Feb 2023

Yass Landcare Community nursery will be having a native seed cleaning and extraction workshop on Saturday 11 February from 9.30 at 1428 Yass Valley Way behind the Yass Community Centre or Yass Men's Shed. Please bring any seed you may have collected but if you don't have any we have the following seed which needs to be cleaned and packaged up for future sowing.

Acacia buxifolia (Box-leaf wattle)

Carex appressa

Lomandra longifolia

Poa labillardieri  (River Tussock)

Cassia longifolia (Shiny Cassinia)

Acacia verniciflua (Varnish wattle)

Indigofera australis (Australian Indigo)

Dodonaea viscosa (Narrow-Leaf Hop bush)

So you see we have grasses, a pea plant and several wattles - each will require a slightly different processing method to extract its seed.
