You can be part of something big by doing something small on National Tree Day 2021.
Central West Lachlan Landcare, Parkes Shire Council and Planet Ark are encouraging residents to join the tree planting at Akuna Road on Sunday, 28th July from 10am – 12pm.
“Over 25 million trees have been planted since 1996, and we are excited to support the goal of getting another million in the ground this year” said Central West Lachlan Landcare Chairperson Margot Jolly.
Parkes Mayor Ken Keith said: “There are clear benefits to spending time in nature, and by planting a tree you can help cool the climate, provide homes for native wildlife, and make your community a better place to live.”
