Windellama News– July 2018 www.windellama.com.au Page 3 Page 4 www.windellama.com.au Windellama News - July 2018 Windellama Landcare Several members of Windellama Landcare were joined by David Hilhorst, from Goulburn Local Land Services, when we met on WINDELLAMA Sandy Point Road on Saturday 2 June to plant trees, eucalypts, at the southern end of the Chain of Ponds area. These trees replace those unfortunate ones which were planted earlier but were washed away during the tumultuous rainstorm we experienced some weeks later. With the gentle rain we have had recently they appear to be doing well. Then we all gathered around the new memorial stone in memory of Kevin Stewart with Chris and Stephanie, Tarago Landcare members joining us in drinking to the memory of Kevin and his services to Windellama the Windellama mob at the unveiling of the Landcare over the last few years. The stone is positioned Memorial stone close to the large Landcare sign, alongside the road. A small rock for a big/grand Landcare personality. Lunch was served - warming hot soups followed by Irene’s chocolate cake and then we hastened home to our own warm fire places as the day had become steadily colder and wetter. A PROGRAM OF PLANT, WEED AND TREE IDENTIFICATION IN THE FIELD AND SOIL/LAND MANAGEMENT is being developed for spring. Please let Tony know if you would be interested in attending and what you would like to see in this program.
