Hello Landcarers and friends and welcome to the July edition of the Goulburn/ Mulwaree Landcare Community e-news. In July we celebrate National Tree Day, Australia's largest tree-planting and nature care event. There are Tree Day events coming up in and around Goulburn through schools, Landcare and Council. It’s a great opportunity for you to do something positive for your community and the environment and to connect with nature. Planting trees with school groups, family and community is very rewarding and benefits can be seen in a relatively short time. It is, however, important to not only focus on the planting of new trees but to acknowledge and preserve what we already have, in particular our old paddock trees which we are losing at an alarming rate.
