National tree day at Tidal River
Forty eight volunteers signed up on Sunday 30 July to plant trees in the Tidal River campground.
Parks Victoria and Friends of the Prom collaborated to make a worthwhile contribution to National Tree Day at the Prom.
This activity had all the ingredients to make a successful day – a beautiful sunny winter’s day in beautiful surroundings, a big group of enthusiastic volunteers, and satisfying work revegetating this part of the Prom. We also thank the large contingent (22) of young volunteers from Deakin University who worked hard to help us plant and guard over 350 trees, shrubs and grasses, all of which were propagated in the Friends of the Prom Tidal River nursery.
Friends of the Prom acknowledges the Traditional Aboriginal Custodians of Country throughout Australia and pay our respects to them, their culture and their Elders, past, present and future.
