Ovens Buckland confluence (Stage 1 & 2)

In July an enthusiastic group planted 100 very heathy redgums along the south bank of the river. This was to add to the 3000 plants we put in last year . The deer and other wildlife are knocking the trees about a bit but overall things are looking great with trees really coming along. This added to a smaller group who did some all-important maintenance on the north side. The transformational change on both sides of the river there from what it was (invaded by woody weeds and introduced trees) is amazing. Martin Patterson has donated another 50 redgums from his collection so they will go in soon on the north (Telford’s) side. NECMA is coming back in Spring to do some follow up woody weed control on the site.
