The agreement removes 11 acres of land from cultivation on both sides of Spring Creek. 2400 trees were planted on the 11 acres in 2018; additionally Heather planted 2000 trees on the farm in 2019 thus, further protecting a natural Heritage Feature called Spring Creek; this is a creation of the huge Hepworth Karst Drainage System.
