TREES PLANTED

Ross Morley, Managing Director of G. J. Gardner Homes has been supporting our native environment (through Fifteen Trees) since 2013 and has helped plant 1000’s of trees across Victoria and Tasmania. For every new home built, Fifteen Trees organises the planting of 15 trees in the local district. This year, the project will see over 8,500 trees planted by schools, landcare and various environmental groups. GJGLogo_NO-TAG_WHITE_BG_lrg Anthony Ruff from G. J. Gardner Homes Central Gippsland in Sale, is a generous supporter of local community groups and their tree planting projects. This year, Anthony has purchased 345 trees for the Yarram Yarram Landcare Network (Merriman Creek Subgroup).   Tree planting  
Here is some of the landholder photos from their creek restoration sites. There were four properties involved. The group paid for extra trees to boost the numbers. Thank you Anthony Ruff and the team from GJG Sale in your support of our restoration projects. Sally-Anne Henderson | Yarram Yarram Landcare Network (Merriman Creek)

‘We’re thrilled to team up with Fifteen Trees in this crucial effort. Koalas are an iconic Australian species, and with increasing threats to their natural environment, it’s never been more important to ensure they have access to suitable habitats.Planting these trees is just the beginning of a broader initiative to safeguard their future’.

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.
