The workshops will allow participants to have a greater understanding of what landcare is and how it works, according to Lithgow Oberon Landcare coordinator Richard Stephens.
"The workshops and surveys will help us to understand what type of people think Landcare is all about and identify what people want Landcare to look like in the local area," he said.
He said it would also provide a framework to increase volunteer participation in local Landcare activities.
