An important consideration in any restoration project is where to source seed and other plant material to be planted on selected sites. Similarly, evaluating how to store and germinate seed can have a profound impact on long-term success. Despite the importance of these decisions, obtaining the necessary information can be challenging. The Restore and Renew NSW project aims to overcome this challenge.

A survey of species commonly used in restoration across NSW The initial stage of this project is an online survey targeted at anyone involved in native vegetation restoration projects in NSW, including: restoration practitioners, bush regenerators, community volunteers, growers, seed collectors, regulators, licensors and researchers. Through this survey, respondents have an opportunity to suggest species to be included in the resulting Restore and Renew NSW website. Survey respondents will go in a draw to win a one year individual or community group membership to the Australian Network for Plant Conservation (ANPC), valued at up to $105. The survey can be found at https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/ANPC2013 and closes Friday 29th November. Thank you to those who have already completed the survey.
