Conserving natural remnants and enhancing biodiversity on small properties are part of conserving natural capital. Phytophthora cinnamomi is listed as a key threatening process for much of our south-west native vegetation. Join Perth NRM and the Shire of Mundaring for this free online workshop to learn more about the biosecurity steps that you can take to help reduce the risk of Phytophthora Dieback and other plan pathogens on your native bushland areas.

You will hear about ReWild Perth and discover how small landholders can take action to improve biodiversity across our urban and peri-urban areas.

Topics we will discuss include:

  • What is Phytophthora Dieback and its threat to native vegetation?
  • Simple biosecurity actions to minimise threats
  • What is ReWild Perth?
  • Actions to increase native habitat and support wildlife
  • Question & Answer time – your chance to ask the expert!
