At the regular last-Tuesday-of-the-month Yass Landcare Community nursery open morning, volunteers sowed over 50 trays of natives which included Yellow Box and Bulbine lily. In October over 1500 pots of natives were sown and all trays are now adopting a new labeling system which will enable the nursery team to evaluate the effectiveness of sowing events.
Yass is one of four YAN nurseries who will be participating in the YAN Climate Ready project in the coming months and all nurseries are working together to strengthen procedures associated with sowing and growing native plants across our region.
The next sowing event at the Yass Landcare Community nursery will be on 16 November as part of the YAN Sowing for Sutton Reserve and AGM. If you would like to assist Yass and fellow Landcare members sow native seed for the Sutton Reserve project we hope to see you there.
