Know your weeds

Not sure if that plant growing in your garden is a weed? Council and Moorabool Landcare have released a handy guide to help you out.

With the heavy rains Moorabool has been receiving lately, there’s been an increase in the number of weeds growing, but the ‘Weeds of the Moorabool Shire’ booklet can help you figure out how best to combat them.

The field guide shows pictures and classifications of weeds found in the area, detailing how they spread, what months are best to get rid of them, and the most effective ways to do so.

To read the full booklet, head to www.moorabool.vic.gov.au/weedsofMSC.

The booklet was produced by Moorabool Landcare Network thanks to a grant from Moorabool Shire Council, and with Council as a partner.
