Just over 600 trees were planted on a property at Murgheboluc on Sunday 30th July, as part of National Tree Day.
Involved were: Four members of Rotary Geelong East, One from Rotary Geelong West, families and friends as well as the property owners. The idea of the owners is to plant trees in designated areas of their small property with a view to encouraging birdlife. In addition to the area planted yesterday, the owners have already planted hundreds of trees on several hills on the land.
All trees were planted in 2½ hours. It doesn't take long - but it sure makes a difference! All trees planted were a variety of four natives.
This was followed by a BBQ and people getting to know one another. A great activity and a great morning.
