Small grant - HUGE IMPACT!
Last year, Raven Place Farm and We Forest Earth were lucky enough to receive a Sustainable at grant from Tweed Shire Council. This grant gave us the opportunity to plant 550 plants into our revegetation zone, along with supporting us on expanding our project using our innovative technique of organic bush regeneration - Mycoregen. Mycoregen is an innovative approach where we use endemic strains of mycelium to phase out woody weeds. Without this small grant, there is no way we could have created this impact to improve our local vegetation, phase out woody weeds without the need for toxic chemicals, create habitat, and prevent erosion whilst cleaning our waterways.
I am very grateful to have received this grant, and appreciate all the work Tweed Shire Council do, to support local farmers in improving their farming practices - from the small grants program to all the workshops and advice they offer.
