TREES PLANTED

G. J. Gardner Homes has been supporting our native environment (through Fifteen Trees) since 2013 and has helped us plant 34,000 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.   The partnership with Fifteen Trees allows GJG teams to go into the field for some team building activities as well as help support the local community through their corporate social responsibility policies. GJGLogo_NO-TAG_WHITE_BG_lrg Andrew Womersley from G. J. Gardner Homes Wodonga are generous supporters of local community groups and their tree planting projects. This year, Andrew purchased 210 trees for the Hopkins Falls Landcare Group   Hopkins Falls Landcare Group

“Tree Planting Day at the Hopkins Falls was held on Sunday 1st October at Wangoom in Southwest Victoria  with around 15 volunteers coming together to help plant around 300 trees/grasses with focus on the areas near the main viewing platform.  Many thanks to all those that come along in wet  & windy conditions.

We all enjoyed a BBQ afterwards, so  a very successful day. Also big thank-you to G.J. Gardner Homes for their donation of trees for the day”.

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. (Feature image from Mt Worth Landcare).

Individual actions really do matter! Individually we can really only make small differences to the world around us, but collectively our numbers add up. And if enough individuals are involved then forests can be grown!
