Riverina Highlands Landcare Network - AGM with guest speaker Graham Strong

The Riverina Highlands Landcare Network (RHLN) is celebrating 15 years since Landcare in the local area was officially formed! To help celebrate, the RHLN is hosting a gathering at the Tumblong Tavern on Thursday 10th May, from 3.30 pm.

The event will feature guest speaker Graham Strong. There will also be some interesting Landcare memorabilia, as part of the event. "We hope those people who have supported Landcare in both the past and present will help us to celebrate the achievement" said Nick Austin, RHLN Chair.

Graham Strong is an innovative organic lamb producer near Narranderra. Graham and his family have made a tremendous transformation from a traditional no-till mixed cropping enterprise to essentially a grazing business producing canola, wheat, barley, chickpeas and sheep. Graham has been recognised as a leader in developing creative approaches to Landcare, being awarded "Young Australian of the Year 2000" - NSW Environment category.

The event will be run in conjunction with the RHLN Annual General Meeting. Free drinks and nibblies will be provided.
