WEEDS, BUSHCARE: 'What does your garden grow?' education and training resources

The Weeds CRC has developed the What does your garden grow? resources to assist anyone speaking to groups or running courses on weeds. The materials focus on garden escapes and controlling weeds in gardens on the urban fringe areas and bushland areas though parts are relevant to a wider audience. The resources can be used in a flexible way for:

  • short courses
  • short information sessions to garden clubs, Rotary or Lions clubs etc
  • to supplement format training in weeds eg at TAFE and for Ag teachers
  • for landcare/bushcare facilitators for their own information or to provide to volunteers
There are over 150 quality PowerPoint slides all with explanatory notes, factsheets, a participant's workbook and loads of references and web-sites listed and much more.
