SUMMARY:Seed Genetics and Restoration
DESCRIPTION:Are you thinking about genetic diversity as you plan your next revegetation project? \nSeed genetics play an important role in the success of restoration projects but is often considered too hard to understand. \nThe genetic diversity of seed is\, however\, the evolutionary material that allows plant populations to respond to environmental change. \nPopulation size\, reproductive strategy\, pollinator movements and distance between populations are just some of the important influences on seed genetic diversity. \nUnderstanding these influences can help collectors to source seed with high genetic diversity that will help to ensure the long-term success of their restoration projects. \nOur speaker\nDr Linda Broadhurst recently retired as Director of the Centre for Australian National Biodiversity Research\, a joint venture between CSIRO National Research Collections Australia and the Director of National Parks. \nDuring Linda’s research career her has research interests included conservation and restoration genetics and improving seed collection practices for better restoration outcomes. \nShe also spent many years translating scientific findings to help improve on ground seed collection and use practices to ensure that plantings has a broad genetic base \nJoin Us\nWe hope that you will join us City West Lotteries House\, 2 Delhi Street\, West Perth.  The doors will open at 6:00 pm for light refreshments; session starts at 6:30 pm. \nPlease let us know that you are coming along. You can either RSVP at the bottom of this page (keep scrolling) or else email ubc@bushlandperth.org.au. \nIf you can’t make it to West Perth\, you can join us online via Zoom.

SUMMARY:Step into the Gosnells Bush
DESCRIPTION:Why care for the bush \nAs people spread out across the landscape\, we lose habitat for our native species. Plants have to compete with introduced species. Animals have trouble finding food. \nDragonfly on the Star of Bethlehem. Photo Credit: Subas P. Dhakal.\nNear here\, we have the Greater Brixton Street/ Kenwick Wetlands. This extensive wetland is only 1% of the Perth metro area reserves but is home to 70% of Perth’s floral species. Some are small or hard to find. A lot of them were burned recently. There is a lot to learn about this reserve. \nWe at the Urban Bushland Council are concerned about the loss of our natural species. We aim to encourage you to join in with efforts to care for nature in the bush and extend bush habitat. \nTo start\, we invite you to a free workshop to share stories about our bush\, share uncertainties\, talk about volunteering\, and meet nearby neighbours. \nGreen Edge Pinkgill Fungi. Photo Credit: Subas P. Dhakal.\nPerhaps you will be enthused to plant native species in your garden. \nPerhaps you will join a group of volunteers who help to rehabilitate a reserve somewhere … or one of the many other ways you can join in. \nYou will meet people from a range of community associations as well as local indigenous leaders\, community environmental groups and experts with local and scientific knowledge. \nYou will also join a guided walk so we can show you the amazing biodiversity of our local bush. \nJoin us\nSunday September 27\, 2026 at at Connect@Kenwick\, sometimes called the Mud Hut\, at 84 Brixton Street\, Kenwick from 10 am. Refreshments will be provided.
