#Gold exploration is underway along Yankee Road, south-east of #Trentham, in a section of forest which remains classified as state forest, with the area sitting just outside the newly legislated #WombatLerdederg #NationalPark, which has yet to be converted into regional parkland as previously pledged.

Locals are “very concerned” about the implications if commercially viable gold is discovered before protections are put in place. #VicPol #auspol #mining

#Trentham is under a carpet of #WhiteCockatoos today!

They are everywhere. Hundreds & hundreds of them.

Yes, we’ve been out driving today.

On the road to #Trentham today saw a mob of about a hundred #kangaroos.

The most I’ve seen in a mob in years - but that’s just down to me not being in the right spot at the right time.🦘

Local artisans selling their wares, incredible turnout. Not to mention all the spud farmers selling a huge variety of spuds.

Always worth the drive. And excellent food everywhere!

Was a gorgeous day for a drive in the countryside to get some spuds in Trentham for #spudfest

Silent disco was doing laps around town.

Trentham was packed with people come to buy spuds and eat spuds and enjoy spuds. Excellent sight!
