Tree planting at Gippsland Lakes.
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 over 30,000 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 GJG and Fifteen Trees project will see over 8,500 trees planted by schools, Landcare and various environmental groups.
Michael Ellett from G.J. Gardner Homes East Gippsland has generously pledged 375 trees. These trees went to Maurice Burns and the Tambo Bluff Landcare Coastcare group.
Massive thank you Michael for your continued support of our tree planting projects. And for coming out to assist in the planting.

On National Tree Day, Sunday 30 July 2017, Principals, Staff and families of GJ Gardner Homes East Gippsland ably assisted Tambo Bluff Landcare Coastcare to plant trees funded through GJ Gardner Homes East Gippsland’s FifteenTrees commitment. The trees were planted “to develop littoral rainforest zones in feeder gullies to freshwater wetlands fringing the Gippsland Lakes at Tambo Bluff”.
Tambo Bluff Landcare Coastcare are very grateful for the funding for plants and for the willing assistance of G.J. Gardner Homes East Gippsland. We all had a good time, improved our local environment and enjoyed a scrumptious morning tea. Perfect.

‘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.
