G.J. Gardner Launceston and their trees.

TREES PLANTED

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. GJGLogo_NO-TAG_WHITE_BG_lrg Chris and Tanya Dell from G. J. Gardner Homes Launceston are generous supporters of local community groups and their tree planting projects. This year, Chris and Tanya have purchased 315 trees for the Windsor Park Precinct Community Project and the Riverside Olympic Soccer Club, with coordination from the Allison Hugo at NRM North. At the soccer club teams planted around the recreational field where they train.   IMG_4345  
Hi Colleen, Thanks so much for creating this opportunity. We had 2 very successful planting sessions. First on Sunday 31st July at the Windsor Precinct with the Youth Coalition Climate Coalition and the Body Shop staff (12 community members). Second on Thursday 10 August and Tuesday 17 August at the Riverside Olympic Soccer Grounds with the Riverside Olympic Junior Soccer Club. We had approximately 30 plus teams and 60 plus planters. Rod from GJ Gardner Homes attended yesterday afternoon’s planting. Thanks again for your support and this wonderful community based opportunity.

  Huge thank you to Chris and Tanya for your on-going support. And thanks too to Rod for going out to help plant the trees. Slànte – Colleen

‘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.
