Myrnion Creek (Vic)

TREES PLANTED

Ben Longhurst and Caitlin Hamston are the new owners of G.J. Gardner Homes Bacchus Marsh. Bacchus Marsh is in a beautiful district of Victoria with an active Landcare group called The Pentland Hills. This group have been established for over 45 years. The dynamic township itself is located 50 km south west of Melbourne and is nestled amongst market gardens. Untitled GJG have helped out their local community by contributing 75 trees to Pentland Hills. These trees were planted at Myrnion Creek last month. This particular planting was part of a bigger project – one that sees the local Pentland Hills landcare group planting 1000’s of trees along the 22km of the creek. This is an ongoing, long term project. On the day, 90 adults and children planted 1850 trees. A massive effort. Thank you Ben and Caitlin, and indeed the entire team at the new office in Bacchus Marsh. Slainte – Colleen

According to Sustainability Victoria, the average Australian lifestyle produces 15,000kg of carbon per year. If that sounds like a lot, it is! Over its lifetime, a tree can collect and store 268kg. This means, we each need to plant 58 trees per year to bring our individual carbon production down to zero. A little tricky for most of us to do in our own backyards, and this is where ‘A Subscription for the Planet’ comes in.
