2026 I Free Event I Enhancing Vineyard Health
Learn how revegetation can support integrated pest management in your vineyard
GB CMA and Wine Victoria invite growers to come together in the vineyard at Tahbilk Winery in Central Victoria to learn from Cathy Olive, Euroa Arboretum and the Dookie Seedbank, and the team behind the BatNav project, about how to work with nature to manage pests and disease in the vineyard.
The session will bring together practical examples and information from Wine Australia, the Euroa Arboretum and Dookie Seedbank, exploring how revegetation and vineyard ecology can be applied in practice.
We’ll look at selecting native vegetation to support beneficial insects and integrated pest management, practical revegetation examples, the role bats can play in landscape health, and opportunities for growers to continue learning and connecting beyond the workshop.
