Platinum Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth IIPrint Page 
The trees commemorate the Platinum Jubilee of the reign of Queen Elizabeth II and acknowledges her 70 years of service as Australia`s Head of State.
Crepe myrtle trees were planted on the morining of the Queen`s death and the plaque was unveiled on the 28th September 2022.
The project of the Hawkesbury District Agricultural Association received funding of $5,000 from the Queen`s Platinum Jubilee Tree Planting Program which will run from 2021-2024. The project will plant an avenue of established trees, install a commemorative plaque and hold an event in honour of The Queen’s Jubilee. This will provide shade and improve community participation.
