Otway Agroforestry Network
Phone: (03) 52 36 3277
Email: [email protected]
Website: http://www.oan.org.au
In 1993 two progressive trees groups in the Otway region, got together and applied for a Federal grant to set up a Farm Forestry project in the area. We could see the need for trees for a variety of reasons – so why not incorporate commercial trees in our landcare projects. Our application was successful and the Otway Agroforestry Network was born.
