Wilson Inlet Grower Group (WIGG)
Description
The Wilson Inlet Growers Group was started as a 2-year project funded by State NRM to bring our local farmers together and allow them to explore a range of topics along sustainable agricultural themes. Since completing the original planned series of workshops the participants wanted to continue the Growers Group in a more informal way. Starting early in 2024, we aim to plan a local, on-farm meeting every 2 months with a guest speaker on a topic of interest to members.
