Winter is a time to purchase and plant trees. This year we have put in 110 new trees which has basically filled up the remaining available space. Going forward it will mostly be shrubs or replanting specimens that don't survive.July 30, 2011treescarbonforestry
Mulching is the practice or process of covering the soil with a thick layer of organic matter. This has a number of benefits depending on the mulch material and desired outcomes. Some of the advantages include preventing moisture evaporation, smothering weeds, feeding soil life and increasing soil carbon and water holding capacity. Use as much mulch as you can get your hands on.June 06, 2015mulchcarbon
Planted in 2010, this silver wattle has but put on an impressive amount of height since this photo in mid 2012. Nature only needs the slightest nudge to send it down a path of productivity and abundance. I noticed fantails use the wattle trees as 'stepping stones' or islands to travel across the open expanse of paddock. In 2014 the tree is now large enough for an 8 year old to climb.July 06, 2014wattleacaciacarbongrowth
