Today was PlantetArk's National Tree Day, and , with the help of Parramatta Council, I and about 90 others got our hands dirty (not too dirty as I had gloves). The site where we planted the many trees,shrubs and grasses was at Baronbali Street Reserve along the Ponds-Subiaco catchment at Dundas. The total planting was hoped to be about 4,500 plants, I didn't see many left. A
barbecue lunch was supplied after for those that volunteered and a wildlife display kept the kids (and some adults) amused.
(Photos were taken after most had left)

This was a tidy planting spot. |

Weapons of choice. |

Lunch and a rest. |

Late comers. |

Some thought we were a little baty. |
 |
An eye opening experience. |
 |
Can we take it home? |
(you will just have to lean to one side)
