A wonderful re-greening event, helping to restore farmland with trees, and giving nature a helping hand. More than 30 enthusiastic volunteers from Bathurst, Orange, Sydney and Wollongong planted 1000 native canopy and understorey trees at Sam and Elanor Cooke’s 440 hectare property which flanks the northern side of Carcoar Dam.
The Rotary Club of Bathurst lead this Rotary Adopt A Tree project and was ably supported by Oatley Flora and Fauna Conservation Society. Many thanks to our hosts, Rotary Bathurst and all volunteers for their contributions. The event underscored the importance of environmental stewardship and community involvement. Thanks to everyone who participated.
