This Sunday, 2nd August, is National Tree Day. As stated on the event's website, "National Tree Day is a call to action for all Australians to put their hands in the earth and give back to their community". Due to COVID-19 risks, official public planting events have been cancelled this year. But of course we can all still plant trees within our own bubbles, or take a leaf out of Kath's book and hug your favourite trees!
If you would like to add your photo to this National Tree Day blog please send your photo to our YAN Landcare Coordinator.
YAN’s Chair Kath McGuirk practices what she preaches and is hugging four Box Gum Eucalyptus species for National Tree Day. The photos include a Yellow Box, an Apple Box, a Candlebark, and a Blakely's Red Gum.
