About the event
Kelvin and Emma and their children reside on a 100 acre property 11 kilometres from Orange. They have resided on the property for 6 years after building their home there. And yes they actual have a few resident emus on the property.
Kelvin and Emma are both passionate about environmental care and come from families where their parents share those interests.
Kelvin and Emma and their family have collected local seed and raised natives for planting. They have also purchased local native plant stock from the Central Tablelands Landcare. They have 550 seedlings ready to plant. They heard about Rotary Adopt a Tree program and wanted to become involved and recently contacted Bathurst Rotary to see if they could assist with the planting.
The site is fenced and prepared for the planting.
Given the late notice for this years planting, it was agreed that we will look to 3 days…
