TREES PLANTED

To help an event that I am attending to be a little greener, Fifteen Trees has planted out 100 native trees. The Pro-blogger Training Event is an annual conference for bloggers to come together to learn and network  – with the goal of building better blogs.

The trees have been planted in a wildlife corridor in Brown Hill (just west of Ballarat). They are all native species that will in years to come, provide habitat for our native birds, reptiles, insects and mammals. They will also capture carbon and help keep the water flowing to the local creek (Yarrawee) a little cleaner.

Not a bad effort for a small grove of trees.

David Cook-Doulton always thought Ballarat had a world-class feel. He can see it in the wide streets, the grand buildings, the city’s confidence. The glint of gold still in the air. To a designer with a luxe aesthetic and a deep respect for quality, Ballarat seemed like the perfect place to realise a very particular dream. And so, with partner and marketing guru Martin Shew on board, Hotel Vera was born.
