Can I get paid to plant trees? Carbon field day - Galore (Wagga Wagga area)

Greening Australia

Exploring the role of the carbon market to fund large scale revegetation and conservation projects on private land in NSW.

The carbon market provides an opportunity to fund large scale revegetation and conservation projects on private land. Greening Australia has been partnering with local landholders for 40 years, and over the last 3 years helping them access the carbon market; providing the capital to accelerate their farm plans, generate their own carbon credits or secure additional sources of income from planting trees. Come and hear about the successes, lessons learnt and opportunities to get involved*Attendees will be able to see examples of historical planting projects, hear from landholders how it fits within their farm plan, and Greening Australia staff can explain how the carbon market works and the types of projects that might be suitable for your land. Benefits may include:	Capital investment on your farm (fencing, erosion control measures, livestock shelter)	Derive an income from the sale of carbon credits	Generate your own carbon credits	Attract wildlife to your property, including threatened woodland birds*Please note: Carbon projects generally require a minimum of 20-100 hectares (50-250 acres) to be planted depending on the landscapeT﻿his event is being held in the Galore area, west of Wagga Wagga.
