Harvest of the Hills

Once again thanks for this footage my father was born in forrest and his father was the forestry officer there at that time 1931. The responsibility of the protection and management of our forest reserves must rest with the commission and its selective logging practices, unfortunately they are no longer with us like the vast knowledge of those men and women, as for now the sole responsibility of our Victorian forests and lack of management is controlled by six inner city councils and their armchair expert residents whose preference is to look at desiduous trees.

It is such a pity that greed has caused the demise of the timber industry in Victoria. I run a small-scale milling operation south of Ballarat, only processing about one hundred tonnes per year. Regards Liz.
