Two workshops on the value of trees on farms are being held at Puhoi and Tomarata this month. Beef + Lamb NZ will host the events at Puhoi Centennial Hall on Monday, March 11 and Tomarata Hall on Tuesday, March 12, with local Te Uru Rākau New Zealand Forest Service representatives leading discussion at both.

The Trees Within Farms workshops are designed to broaden understanding of the value of trees on farms, and how to take advantage of carbon market opportunities.

Experts will be on hand to explain the Emissions Trading Scheme and give farmers and landowners a clear idea of options relevant to individual properties. 

Each workshop runs from 10am to 3pm and lunch will be provided.
