AGA is a not-for-profit company providing assistance to those in apprentice and trainee vocations. They support both the apprentice and the employer for the duration of the training period. They are also a company that supports our native environment by providing trees to rural Landcare groups via Fifteen Trees. This year, AGA continues to reduce the carbon emissions of their fleet with Fifteen Trees. Twenty vehicles @ 15 trees per car = 300 trees. Flowerdale Landcare was the grateful recipient of AGA trees. This dynamic group of landowners were delighted to receive more trees for their ongoing re-generation projects.[fusion_builder_container hundred_percent=”yes” overflow=”visible”][fusion_builder_row][fusion_builder_column type=”1_1″ background_position=”left top” background_color=”” border_size=”” border_color=”” border_style=”solid” spacing=”yes” background_image=”” background_repeat=”no-repeat” padding=”” margin_top=”0px” margin_bottom=”0px” class=”” id=”” animation_type=”” animation_speed=”0.3″ animation_direction=”left” hide_on_mobile=”no” center_content=”no” min_height=”none”]Planting team at Flowerdale.‘Hello Colleen. On Friday 28th of August, a group of National Australia Bank volunteers planted 300 tree seedlings in Flowerdale. This re-vegetation project was along the creek bank and the surrounding hills. The trees will contribute to bank stabilisation and provide habitat for insects that form part of the diet of the endangered Macquarie Perch that breed in this district. Thank you to AGA for your assistance in helping us to replant this beautiful district after the 2009 bush fires’.

‘Converge have partnered with Fifteen Trees as part of its commitment to environmental sustainability. By planting a tree for every new employee, Converge is helping to restore native habitats, improve biodiversity, capture carbon emissions, and support healthy ecosystems’. Stuart French | Converge International
There’s something quietly powerful about a person who decides, on their own, to do something good for the planet. No fanfare, no corporate mandate – just a simple choice to put a few trees in the ground. When hundreds of individuals make that same choice, something remarkable happens. Native forests are restored, wildlife corridors are rebuilt, and community groups across Australia get to do the work they love. So if you’ve ever purchased trees through Fifteen Trees, thank you.
‘Tree planting is about far more than restoring the landscape, it’s about bringing people together to care for the places we all value. Thank you for your generous support for the farmers, students, volunteers and conservation partners who are helping create healthier habitat for Tasmania’s unique wildlife while inspiring the next generation of environmental stewards’.
