excellent opportunity
shine, thanks for posting this- we can't attend unfortunately (our verandah is going up on the property this Sunday), but this is a great thing for us to hook into, another group that SB can partner with. I'll follow up with them, and do a little more research on Landcare- is Bundy part of the Southeast Burnett group or does Bundy have a Landcare group of its own?
Oh, and if anyone from the group CAN attend, give us a holler, eh?? :)

Didn't realise they did things like this in Bundy. I'll be there.

actually...
...it looks like this is in Booubyjan, between Ban Ban Springs and Goomeri. Shame it isn't in Bundy! I've passed this info on to the RWBI folks since its in their neck of the relocalisation woods.
