I’m dedicating my limited daylight hours to working through feedback received from the last Tomahawk community vision workshop. We are looking forward to pulling community input into projects which we can share and dissect at a meeting later in the year.
ORC attended the Catchment Group workshop facilitated by the NZ Landcare Trust at Invermay last week. The day showed the different approaches to catchment management between groups, and also highlighted the common themes that developed along their journey. We have lots of information and observations which we look forward to sharing with our colleagues with an eye to future possibilities.
Lastly from me, just a reminder that with intensive grazing of crop paddocks you will likely require proactive measures to keep stock from waterways to remain within the permitted activity rule. At this time of year, this includes ephemeral streams and a gold star to those who extend the practice to swales and other wet/boggy bits. ORC and the Otago community appreciate the extra time, resource and walking this requires during this already busy time.
