We're looking for planters to put in 2,000 tubestock trees, shrubs, grasses and  herbs on the west side of the central dam (pictured). This will link the north and south ImLal sites, providing a biodiverse core of 15ha in total.

The date for the Planting & Field Day is Sunday 4 October, meeting at the Lal Lal Hall for a briefing at 9.30am. Equipment provided and we're offering a free lunch. (Who said there was no such thing!).

The planting plan has been prepared by Steve Murphy, who'll preside over the planting day. He has consulted with BRT President Phil Kinghorn over the farm forestry clumps – we're going to put in a grove of oak trees, a bank of callitris and more river she-oak. 

Biodiverse plants will include some locally endangered species, such as Banksia marginata and Hakea decurrens.

To register, contact Ballarat Region Treegrowers President, Phil Kinghorn on: geoking@vic.chariot.net.au

    Gib Wettenhall is interested in how  we carry out large scale landscape restoration that involves the people who live in those landscapes. That, he  believes, would build truly resilient landscapes.
