Composting Helps Roebuck Bay

Jardine Macdonald, a hydrogeologist and Program Manager for Rangelands NRM, is passionate about how soil health and composting can help Roebuck Bay. Jardine has provided a fantastic power point for those who missed out on the presentation in the Science on the Broome Coast series and wish to get into Soil Health and composting  » 

Kandy Curran has also provided a hyperlink to the FREE garden book produced by Roebuck Bay Working Group, Coastal Gardens A planting guide for Broome on the Dampier peninsula » 

The local coastal plants (endemics) selected, thrive in Broome soils and climate, most are cyclone resistant, require less water than introduced plants and resistant to tropical pests. The book includes plants to avoid – with many weeds in Broome, escaped garden exotics.
