English Gorse is one of the most persistent woody weeds in our district and many landholders have recently been required to develop weed management plans. But what actually works on the ground?

Join us on a local farm for a hands-on workshop where you can learn proven and innovative control methods. Learn from Expert Supervisors who will have you cutting and dabbing to get gorse under control. See the equipment, techniques, herbicides and technology being used by experts – and walk away with practical experience that you can apply to your own property.

For those of us who have larger areas, correctly applying chemicals for those who may recently completed their ACUP Course, or an introduction to the proper use of Chemicals and their application .

See the equipment, techniques, herbicides, and technology being used by experts and walk away with practical experience that you can apply to your own property.

If you wish to have a go with the spray unit, please ensure you bring your own PPE. ( overalls, rubber gloves and hat and glasses )

All your questions can be answered in a stress-free respectful environment. There will also be earlier sprayed stands of Gorse that were done at the end of 2025. Within a short walk, should you wish to inspect there is an example of Blackberries also sprayed last spring.

This is a free event

As an added bonus, there are some spider mites, take some cuttings and get them to get your gorse under control

This event is funded by Agriculture Victoria as part of the Partnership Against Pests initiaitive.
