People interested in caring for the land in the irrigation area were keen to learn about the collection of seeds native to the area to encourage the development of endemic plantings. Sue Logie from LLS has significant skills, experience and knowledge to assist people in learning about seed collection requirements. Collecting seeds that are endemic to the local area is an important activity that will safeguard the local species and retain this local knowledge base. It is not only the seed collection but also other factors, such as the licencing required and seed storage methods that needed to be addressed to ensure viable collection methods are carried out.
