A botanist from the Qld Herbarium will provide training on how to take samples of weeds and press them etc. to send to the Qld Herbarium for official identification and recording of location. This is meant to gather information on the spread of existing weeds as well as early detection of new weeds.
Thursday November 1 at the Proserpine Community Centre from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.
The Workshop is free of charge and open to anyone. Morning tea and lunch will be provided.
There will be an outdoor component to the workshop so hat and closed in shoes needed.
Please RSVP by Tuesday the 30th October and notify of any dietary requirements
