This report provides advice and recommendations for remediation of streambank erosion sites along House Creek within Wodonga as part of the Platy Patch project.

North East CMA team at Tallangatta Expo

Our North East CMA team were out and about at the Tallangatta Expo!

The day celebrated sustainable farming, farming equipment and practical ideas for sustainable living, while also providing a great chance to connect with the community and chat about caring for our waterways and landscapes.

Visitors also had some fun matching the fish, with free fishing lures up for grabs for those who got it right!

Even better, all proceeds from the expo were donated to Upper Murray bushfire relief which is supporting a cause close to home. Thanks to everyone who stopped by to say hello!
