EIGHT MILE PLAINS, AUSTRALIA
About 60 members of the Eight Mile Plains Australia Stake in Brisbane braved the wet weather on March 6 as part of a coordinated effort with the Logan City Council Clean Up Australia Day projects.
The group planted about 600 trees and shrubs in Dorset Park Rochedale. The Logan City Council, in conjunction with Greening Australia, organized the project and provided the supply of the trees.
There were also members of the community and a local college that participated.
The Eight Mile Plains stake has worked closely with the local Logan City Council to organize projects such as this, which help members demonstrate their commitment to helping beautify the area and participate in meaningful projects for the community.
With such a large number of volunteers, the trees were planted in 30 minutes, proving that many hands can simplify major projects.
