Another Milestone: first tree-planting event - Down’s Estate

Yet another Milestone reached – the first tree planting event at Down’s Estate!!

A very last-minute opportunity was given to our group to plant approximately 20 native trees near the Eel Race Road end of the Estate, West of the Shared User path.

It was our first “spades in the ground” working bee and so marks a significant milestone for this project. Thanks to the 10 people who were able to attend and for their genuine goodwill and help – it was a great team effort. Thanks also to Kim from the Indigenous nursery and David Fairbridge from Council for assisting us with paperwork.

Now let’s hope for some more rain to get the trees established!

We look forward to our inaugural working bee for DECP when we can invite all community members.

Please feel free to contact us to get involved ......... ​
