A warm, sunny day, lots of activities and a large crowd combined to create a carnival atmosphere at Mucklefest 2012, held at the Muckleford Railway Station on Sunday 28 October.
Muckleford Catchment Landcare was on hand to meet with community members, explain our focus and highlight some of our recent projects, and to gain feedback on future activities. A detailed map of our project activities within the catchment region proved to be a great talking point.
In addition to information about our Landcare group, we were able to provide copies of the FOBIF guide to native wildflowers and the NCCMA weeds identification guide for Central Victoria.
A regular stream of people stopped by our booth during the day to meet our representatives, to gather information, to discuss specific landcare and environmental issues, and to exchange ideas. A number also became members on the day.
All in all, Mucklefest 2012 proved to be a great success.
