Hokstead Plantation- Pam Hockings, Rosenthal Heights QLD

Our Eucalyptus journey began with a vacant block of land of 5.5 acres. Thinking it would be for our retirement we discovered that we began harvesting within 6 months of planting 3,000 trees. We were drawn to the many different varieties of gum and, so started promoting the benefits of eucalyptus. In 29 years it has never waned in popularity with Australians. We love what we do and it is a joy to see the echo climate that we have created for birdlife and wildlife. We also love to share our little piece of Australia to who ever who wants to hear our story and to visit with groups to experience this sensory environment.
