Historic Vaughan Springs (Vic).

Members of the newly formed Vaughan Springs Landcare Group met up last month to plant out 120 trees at the historic township of Vaughan Springs. These trees (along with the tree guards) were very generously paid for by Peter Thompson from Thompson Family Funerals of Castlemaine.

Members of the newly formed Vaughan Springs Landcare Group met up last month to plant out 120 trees at the historic township of Vaughan Springs. These trees (along with the tree guards) were very generously paid for by Peter Thompson from Thompson Family Funerals of Castlemaine. Peter has one tree planted for every service entrusted to his care. This is done as a community kindness and there is no charge to the families.

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.
