As promised I have attached some photos of my partner John planting trees…. in the rain….. again!! LOL….  It was freezing today and definitely not the day to get pretty photos. The 60 native tubestock have been planted in paddocks to improve the wildlife corridors on and adjacent to our property. We are also fencing off some huge old paddock trees and planting around them to create vegetation islands in the middle of paddocks. 

I want to thank you for making the trees available and I think it is a wonderful idea to connect landholders with other people in the community in this way. 

 The trees planted at Harcourt last month were generously paid for by three individuals who contacted Fifteen Trees looking for a tangible  way to reduce their carbon footprint.  John Toman, Claire Coulson and Mr/Ms Long all carbon offset their vehicles with Fifteen Trees and as a result 60 trees were planted in the ‘apple district’ of Central Victoria.

As you can see from the photo and comments, Jill and John have taken good care of the trees and planted them with full protection (from cattle, weeds and rabbits). Over time, these trees will become a natural habitat for the local flora and fauna, as well as provide clean air and water.

Thank you to those who find Fifteen Trees on the internet, like what they see and then take the time to contact us.

Cheers – Colleen

The number of trees planted with the assistance of Fifteen Tree supporters – 4215
