Tree planting by dide

Tree planting

We had 30 kids come to our place to plant trees today. After a week of scrappy, rainy, unsettled weather, the day turned out sunny and calm. They were a neat bunch of kids and planted about 600 trees. My job today, was to feed them morning tea and lunch - they were good eaters!!!
The image shows them getting a safety briefing before going onto the site. Last year's planting can be seen beyond where the group is standing.
'they are doing well nowadays with encouraging tree planting! So good to see!

What a wonderful way for the kids to be involved. Bet feeding them kept you busy.

@maggiemae @julzmaioro @deliad Yes, they ate heartily! The schools grow the trees as part of a 'Trees for Survival' programme, so the kids get to see the whole process.
