Working Bee at Garrallan by the Galari Bila

We enjoyed a fabulous couple of days planting at at ‘Garrallan’ in Cowra earlier this month, managing to get in almost 250 plants!

On the first day we hit our target of one Hundred trees in celebration of David Attenborough’s 100th birthday. What an inspiration that man is and so are all these wonderful volunteers who ventured out planting on a foggy morning by the river.

This planting will benefit many species although it’s main aim is to increase feed trees and habitat for the Superb Parrots that bred on this amazing farm. The day was organised by Garrallan custodian Marion and funded in part by Greening Australia with our Landcare helpers joining friends and neighbours to get the job done.

Doing jobs like this is so much more fun when you can do it with such an awesome bunch of people. Also such a beautiful spot along the Lachlan (Galari) river.

Once again our timing was spot on as it rained the next week giving the new trees a boost to life at their new home.
