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).

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.   IMG_0535   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.   Slànte – Colleen

David Cook-Doulton and Martin Shew always thought regional towns of Ballarat and Bendigo had a world-class feel. They could see it in the wide streets, the grand buildings and beautiful botanical gardens. And so two world-class hotels were created – Hotel Vera (Ballarat) and Hotel Ernest (Bendigo). Both hotels link luxury with environmental awareness as part of ‘true luxury, founded upon environmental integrity’.
