There are currently so many advances in technology and new approaches to sustainable agriculture, productive enterprises and supporting rural and regional communities. The 18th New England North West Landcare Adventure on Thursday 4th and Friday 5th May 2017 in Armidale and Uralla will be such a great place to catch up on it all!

- Hear from farmers who are mentoring other farmers and being paid to do so as part of Southern New England Landcare's Agroforestry Peer Group Mentoring project. Could this be a more effective way for governments to support community natural resource management?
- See demonstrations of technological breakthroughs in on-farm monitoring, weed detection, stock management, pastures and land management at the University of New England’s Smart Farm during the 'Farmers meets Scientist' session.
- Spend an evening socialising, networking with your peers and hearing something inspirational, while getting a taste of Armidale cuisine, and appreciating key individuals who have contributed much to the landcare movement.
- Visit a market place of 'Farmer meets Business' in Uralla to find out how local landholders are working with local businesses across the board, and what's behind Uralla’s Z-Net project.
