Bok Bok B’Gerk is the brainchild of Michelle Boehm an extremely talented women with an eye for humour and colour. Michelle designs and constructs the most adorable brooches and earrings. During July, Michelle ran a promotion where she would purchase one tree for every brooch sold. After only a couple of days, Michelle had the funds to purchase 30 trees for our local community.
The trees went to a Ballarat family in Cardigan who are keen to revegetate their 4 acre property back into native bushland.

We had a fantastic day in the sunshine today planting our new trees. Thank you so much for your support in offering us this opportunity. We purchased a lovely property on 4 acres last year in which had very few trees planted. Sadly a couple of these have been severely damaged with the winds during this winter. These new trees are planted for the long term and we are hoping they will bring back the native wildlife that was once so prolific in this area.

Once again a huge thank you to Michelle at Bok Bok B’Gerk for your support of our natural environment. Your trees have gone to a great home in Cardigan where they will be maintained and watered over the coming dry seasons and in return will provide native habitat and a self-sustaining ecosystem.

Individual actions really do matter! Individually we can really only make small differences to the world around us, but collectively our numbers add up. And if enough individuals are involved then forests can be grown!
There are individuals and organisations at all levels, in all parts of the country, taking steps to protect our environmental inheritance. We can all join in. By taking many small steps, and working together, we truly can grow change.
Together with your generous support, we have planted 633 native trees to provide shelter, food, and protection for the Tawny Frogmouths, helping in their survival for generations to come.
