Lake Boga and District Landcare Group are a fantastic team who are doing great things for their local environment. Recently they planted 50 trees at Bate’s Bush on the behalf of Taverna Funerals. There was a massive amount of work to be done before the trees could be planted. They had to remove gorse and other nasty introduced species, set up a drip system and determine what species would be best planted. Tricia Pollard (secretary of the group) was delighted to have received the trees.[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”]Photo by Georgia Sampson.Lorraine Taverna wanted these trees planted on the behalf of the families who entrust their loved ones into her care. A family run company, Taverna Funerals has been in Swan Hill for many years (sometimes operating under different names). When I first approached Lorraine to see if she was willing to support her community through tree planting, she was very enthusiastic and is to be commended for her leadership and willingness to contribute.Thank you Lorraine and family.Slainte – Colleen [/fusion_builder_column][/fusion_builder_row][/fusion_builder_container]
‘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’.

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’. Nel Smit | Nipaluna Community Nursery
