In December 2020, Hay Plains Landcare hosted a field trip to the renowned, Zara Conservation Sandhill, to see a wonderfully conserved ecosystem.

The field trip provided information on native plant management and identification, promoted benefits of retaining a locally native remnant vegetation site and informed which native species could be grown in different landscapes.

During July 2021, Hay Plains Landcare hosted direct seeding and planting workshop at Oakville, Conargo. Participants undertook paddock walks at the woolshed and the homestead, viewed a direct seeding demonstration and planted seedlings on a sandhill.
