Hey Adam

Could we please get an update on the tree planting initiative.

I've lost track of how much money we've committed. I know we spent $575 on
tree guards a while ago, and that we're planning on ordering 250
seedlings... I'd like to include the outstanding expense as a liability, so
there's a record of it.

I'm guessing planting will not be possible until June/July 2021, right?

And is it worth handing over the relationship with Tony Forster to someone
else, considering your distance from Victoria currently?

For the list, here's Tony's proposal document

Cheers,

hey Board

The FOSS4G SotM 2019 tree planting project will be delayed till next year.
Tony Forster has looked at a lot of options, however the project area is in
stage 4 lockdown until too late to establish the seedlings properly this
year, and in comms with the nursery has advised that it is better to delay
a year and make sure the trees we plant survive!

The nursery will ask us to pay in advance for new seedlings for next year
(don't worry, we still only pay for the amount we need), which is great -
we've been trying to pay in advance for a while now! I've asked for an
invoice.

...and I'll keep comms open with Tony about progress.

Regards

Adam
