Did you know that Fifteen Trees now offers free mature trees to community groups in the Ballarat district! I can provide 2-3m tall Golden Ashes, English Elms, Claret Ashes, Silver Birches, London Plane and even orchard trees. Unfortunately, there are no established Eucalyptus as they are best grown from tube stock (due to tap roots). Normal retail price is between $28 and $54.

Community groups can apply for between 10 – 20 mature trees. The trees (bare rooted stock) will be available between June and August. If you are interested please email me with ‘mature trees’ in the subject box and I will ensure you are added to my database. Gary and Lynnette from Avalon Nursery from Haddon will be providing the trees.
Happy plantings.

Each year, Fifteen Trees plants native trees for every new home built by the Wodonga team. A tangible and lasting contribution to the local environment.
Chris and Sharri Longmore from G.J. Gardner Homes Shepparton are generous supporters of local community groups, and their tree planting projects. To date, Chris, Sharri and their team purchased almost 3,000 native trees for the Goulburn Valley district.
According to Sustainability Victoria, the average Australian lifestyle produces 15,000kg of carbon per year. If that sounds like a lot, it is! Over its lifetime, a tree can collect and store 268kg. This means, we each need to plant 58 trees per year to bring our individual carbon production down to zero. A little tricky for most of us to do in our own backyards, and this is where ‘A Subscription for the Planet’ comes in.
