With the ending of native forest logging, what sustainable options exist for working with wood, that most renewable of natural resources? Unlike steel or concrete, trees grow!
Ballarat Region Treegrowers Timber Trip 2024
19/20 October
Curated by Newstead fine woodworker, Lachie Park (in association with the Moorabool Landcare Network), the trip will take you on a ‘small is beautiful’ journey from First Nations ‘forest gardening’ in Leonard’s Hill to small scale sawmilling, framing and woodworking in Newstead and Bendigo.
If you’re interested in working sustainably with wood and want to access local people and resources, this could be a trip worth taking. See flyer for link to full itinerary and how you can register via Humanitix – https://events.humanitix.com/ballarat-region-treegrowers-timber-trip-2024
