Over the past year, Brisbane Ranges Landcare has received 825 trees thanks to the generous supporters of Fifteen Trees. They sourced the native seedlings from their local native nursery (Eco-Regeneration at Sutherlands Creek) and distributed them to 13 individual members of the landcare group. The last lot of trees (195) were planted by John and Denise Anderson of Batesford.John writes ‘Thank you to the supporters of Fifteen Trees for our trees, we hope to bring back native birds and help the environment in our area and your trees will enable us to do this‘.[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”]An area in desperate need of trees.A number of people have paid for these trees. Samantha Tannahill, bought a tree for her work colleague (Emma Lucia) as a gift. Asha from Angus and Celeste periodically purchase 75 trees, one tree for every on-line sale from their amazing company (please check them out). Christine Wright bought 50 trees in memory of her dear friend Jenny Langridge (who would have turned 50 last month). Rest In Peace Jenny.[/fusion_builder_column][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”]Jenny LangridgeThat leaves us with 68 trees. These trees I have planted on the behalf of the wonderful 68 peeps who came to our Green Drinks trivia night in Ballarat on World Environment Day (June 5th). Green Drinks is an international event held in pubs and cafes around the world. See if you have one in your neighbourhood. Can’t find one? Then, do what we did – start your own.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’. 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’. Nel Smit | Nipaluna Community Nursery
