“Friends of Westgate Park has successfully planted 450 trees at Westgate Park( found right under the Bridge) using volunteers from The Green Jobs Corps. This group forms part of a Commonwealth Government initiative providing training and practical work for young people. The trees will be well maintained by the group (who has an excellent reputation). The re vegetation in Westgate Park is providing a green space close to the city of Melbourne. Friends of Westgate are really pleased to have a partnership with Fifteen Trees and their generous sponsor.[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”]Part of the team of volunteers from the Green Jobs Corps.Keep up the good work – Tony Flude (Friends of Westgate Park)”The generous sponsor of Westgate Park is Peter King from Kings Cars Ballarat. The dealership has carbon offset 30 new cars (Citroens and Mitsubishi ASX ) with Fifteen Trees. As a result, 450 native trees were planted at the reserve in North Melbourne. These trees (over their lifetime) will collect the carbon these 30 cars will emit over the next 12 months.Thank you Peter and the team at Kings Cars for your continued support of tree planting in Victoria.Cheers – 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
