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 7,000 trees planted by schools, landcare and various environmental groups.
Ludek and Lenka Valta from G. J. Gardner Homes Hobart West are generous supporters of local community groups and their tree planting projects. This year, Ludek and Lenka purchased 90 trees for Landcare Tasmania and their tree planting project along the Tyenna River.
This project was in partnership with Parks and Wildlife and Conservation Volunteers Australia. We had various people engaged throughout this project including; local job seekers, retirees and university students and international volunteers. Everyone involved was thrilled to be helping revegetate and protect such a spectacular and diverse area 0f the Tyenna Valley National Park. Special thank you to G.J. Gardner Homes and Fifteen Trees.

‘Sometimes there are really simple things everyone can do to reduce their carbon footprint. When staying at a hotel, choosing to skip the room cleaning and having a tree planted instead, is one of those things’. Hugo from Hotels for Trees.
‘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’. Ballarat Wildlife Park
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.
