Wardandi Flora Reserve (WA).
TREES PLANTED
Wardandi means ‘people who live by the ocean and walk the forest paths’. Local Nyungar elders gave permission to use the name to the Austalind Bushcare Council (who looks after the site). Some of the Council’s activities include; plant and fauna surveys, fencing, weed control, rubbish removal, guided wildflower walks and planting trees! Which is where Austin Letto and G.J. Gardner Homes Bunbury come into the picture.
For every new home GJG home built in Bunbury, Austin (through Fifteen Trees) has 15 trees planted. This year, Austin’s trees (300) went out to the Wardandi Flora Reserve. On the day of planting Austin (pictured) and his team attended the site to lend a helping hand.
It is interesting to note that this site is the only A-Class reserve in this district. Doubly important to protect this area.
Thank you Austin for your support.

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.
