J.J. Kell Funerals and Trees
TREES PLANTED
Jenny Biddy and John Kell from J.J. Kell & Son Funeral Directors (St Arnaud, Victoria) have once again supported our tree planting efforts here at Fifteen Trees by sponsoring the planting of 60 trees (along with tree guards).
Meanwhile over at St Arnaud, Kevin Spence planted 30 trees on the property of a new small landholder, David Bellinger. This district is hoping to recruit new local landcare members. Kevin is the facilitator for the Buloke and Northern Grampians Landcare Network.
Thank you Jenny and John for your continued support of our native environment. It is a beautiful gesture, to plant trees for those who have passed away.

J.J. Kell plant trees on the behalf of those who are entrusted into their care.
At the Field and Game Club, 30 trees were planted at a working bee early in August. It was very timely as they received 20mm of rain in the days that followed. A great start to these new seedlings.

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.
