Carbon offsetting at Glenburn, Victoria.

Hi Colleen,

Your trees (390) were planted at the Break O’Day Reserve in Glenburn and will help with the re-vegetation of this fire affected reserve along the Yea River. Thank you for encouraging companies to support our efforts. Regards, Chris Cobern (Fire Recovery Coordinator)

Melbourne group APlus Apprentice +Trainee Services have once again taken the ‘green pathway’ and carbon offset their fleet of cars (26) with Fifteen Trees. Janette Etherington (CEO) wanted her trees planted in the 2009 bushfire affected area of Murrindindi in Victoria. Many Landcare groups and land owners in this region are ‘flat out’ replanting to restore this beautiful environment. With the support of Apprenticeships Plus almost 400 extra trees were planted this year.

Thank you Janette for your green vision and let’s hope other CEO’s take your lead!

Cheers – Colleen

The number of trees planted with the assistance of Fifteen Trees supporters – 5685.

A Subscription for the Planet. Winter Update.

June 10, 2026

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.

Hotels for Trees. VIC

May 17, 2026

For hotels, embracing sustainability can strengthen brand loyalty, enhance their reputation, and help differentiate them in a competitive market. In this way, sustainable initiatives are not just good for the planet – they also make strong business sense, creating a win-win for hotels, their guests, and the communities and ecosystems they support.

Collective Action. Individuals for the Planet.

April 29, 2026

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.
