Our collaboration-based workshops can help you understand and achieve positive environmental actions and outcomes.
Workshops we currently offer
GHG Calculator and action plan workshop
This workshop supports farmers to calculate their farm’s GHG emissions numbers and document their GHG action plan.
Trees within Farms
This workshop focuses on opportunities to integrate trees within farms to benefit sheep and cattle farming and the farm environment, and at the same time generate a return from production forestry, from the ETS, and/or localised tree-planting or land-retirement funding programmes. You can find additional resources on this page.
Winter grazing
This workshop covers planning and management to avoid and mitigate the negative effects of winter forage crop grazing and strategies and techniques to look after animals, soils and water. You can find additional resources on this page.
Farm plan: Environment module
Workshops with a strong practical focus, covering soils, freshwater, biodiversity, climate change, forage cropping and more. The strength of a workshop approach is access to expert knowledge and the ability to share with and learn from other farmers addressing the same issues as you. By attending these workshops farmers will be able to create much of their environmental farm plan. You can find additional resources on this page.
