Ever Solar are installing solar panels and planting trees at the same time! For every KW system sold, Dave and the team from Melbourne are funding the planting of one tree. To date, we have planted 700 trees on Ever Solar’s behalf.
The trees were planted at the West Gate Reserve (Fishermans Bend, Melbourne at the city end of the Westgate Freeway). This reserve was founded by 19 year-old Naomie Sunner, a VCA photography student. Naomie discovered the Park in 1999 on a trek along the length of the Yarra River. She thought this neglected, abandoned park – the closest she could get to the river mouth – was nonetheless beautiful and had such potential! Her initial thought was to volunteer but there was no friends group so, with a little help from mentors, she established and incorporated the Friends of Westgate Park and set to work.

Almost 20 years later, the Park boasts of 300+ indigenous plants, 175 bird species and 6 parcels of land totaling 7.8 hectares. Fifteen Trees and Ever Solarare proud to be playing a small part in the revegetation of this area.

‘We would like to thank Essential Flavours for the funding we received for a massive 1,767 plants. The money enables us to reach out to our network and community to distribute important habitat to support the restoration and protection of the district’s natural ecology’. Western Port Biosphere Foundation
‘Thank you for your support in enabling us to purchase trees, shrubs, and grasses for our revegetation project. Your contribution is invaluable in helping us strengthen our canopy corridors allowing fauna and flora to thrive, we just couldn’t do it without you’. Sunshine Reserve.
Neu21 is known for its innovative and creative ideas and so when they decided to get some trees planted as a thank you to their customers this year, it came to no surprise that they contacted us, for we have been working with Gus Balbontin and Neu21 since 2018.
