As you know I lay claim to living in paradise. Yet there is so much of paradise I am yet to visit. So this weekend I decided it was time to start to tick of that bucket list and enlisted the assistance of my neighbour Jenny who is building up her stamina to do a week’s trekking in Morocco.
Over 50% of our farm is rainforest and it is very steep. Much of the the region’s ecological communities are endangered and we follow the RRR principles of bush regeneration and work closely with Landcare Illawarra who collect seed from farms all around our region to help increase the genetic diversity of our magnificent rainforest.
So off Jenny and I went where not too many people have ventured over the last 200 years
and how gorgeous was it
and an hour later it was time to come back to 21st century
thanks to our forefathers and lantana that proved to be quite tricky.
There was a lot of this
We were pretty happy when we found the paddock
and just to show you what RRR principles can achieve in 12 months
It was pretty rewarding to see these trees grown from locally collected seed flourishing 12 months later
