A successful planting day was held at Newhaven College at Phillip Island on Friday 25th July (National Schools Tree Day). In attendance with staff and students, were Gill Hardman and Garry Cox from G. J. Gardner Homes Bass Coast. Gill and Garry generously paid for the trees (240) planted on the school grounds.
Helping with the co-ordination was Lisa Wangman from Phillip Island Landcare. Thank you Lisa for finding such a great home for the trees.
Over Victoria and Tasmania, GJG are helping to plant over 5400 trees across 20 locations. A massive commitment to our native environment.

Since 2019, Argon & Co have been supporting our community tree planting projects and the numbers tell their own story. Eleven thousand (11,000) native trees and counting, with 375 new trees planted every quarter, season after season, without fail.
A simple idea with a surprisingly powerful impact. One tree planted for every invoice generated. Empire Project Management sends a lot of invoices and every single one now puts a tree in the ground, contributing to community tree planting projects that restore native habitat, support local landcare groups and help reduce the carbon footprint of a busy, growing business.
What was once a heavily degraded site, scarred by gold mining and decades of neglect, is now a thriving pocket of native bushland coming back to life thanks to supporters such as Pascoe Vale Rotary Club.
