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. Simon Spiteri from G. J. Gardner Homes Point Cook is a generous supporter of local community groups and their tree planting projects. This year, Simon has purchased 270 trees for the NatureWest community organisation.

The planting took place on the Werribbee River on Wednesday the 28th of September from 10.00am to 12.00pm. A large group of volunteers from Burma (Karen Refugees) helped on the day and cooked lunch. Colleen Miller, NatureWest Coordinator coordinated the planting day.
