Landholders across Far East Gippsland have a unique opportunity to plan for the future of their farms through the Victorian Trees on Farms Grant and Incubator Program.
Whether you’re thinking about planting trees for timber, biodiversity, or simply to improve the health and resilience of your property, this program offers expert support to help you design a plan that works for your goals.
Far East Gippsland Landcare is partnering with the East Gippsland Landcare Network (EGLN) to provide tailored advice and assistance to landholders.
The focus is on property planning–helping you explore options and map out ideas, with no obligation to commit.
It’s a design process only, and once your plan is in place, you may choose to apply for further grants to bring it to life.
“This is a great chance to think long-term and create a legacy for future generations,” said Josh Puglisi, Community Projects Officer.
“Whether you’re just starting out or already have a vision for your land, we’re here to help you shape it.”
The program is open to landholders in Far East Gippsland who are interested in exploring tree planting as part of their farm’s future.
Support includes:
– Expert advice tailored to your property
– Help developing a practical property plan
– Guidance on future funding opportunities
