Plant a tree on National Tree Day
Ballina Shire Council is sponsoring this year’s National Tree Day by supplying 1850 endemic plant species and mulch to schools and community groups in Ballina Shire.
National Tree Day is easy to get involved in, and even if you are new to planting trees, there will be help available to show you how.
Volunteers are welcome to help out by planting a tree at one of the three Council sponsored locations on Sunday 1 August 2010.
