G.J. Gardner Homes Mildura are fabulous supporters of the local environmental in Mildura. They have recently provided an additional 190 trees to 2 community groups for planting. Earlier this year, they gave 100 trees to Merbein Landcare and 40 to Koorlong Primary School.[fusion_builder_container hundred_percent=”yes” overflow=”visible”][fusion_builder_row][fusion_builder_column type=”1_1″ background_position=”left top” background_color=”” border_size=”” border_color=”” border_style=”solid” spacing=”yes” background_image=”” background_repeat=”no-repeat” padding=”” margin_top=”0px” margin_bottom=”0px” class=”” id=”” animation_type=”” animation_speed=”0.3″ animation_direction=”left” hide_on_mobile=”no” center_content=”no” min_height=”none”]Putting in the drip system.This time round, 80 trees were provided to Rae Jeffers (Secretary of the Yelta Landcare Group) and her team of volunteers. The trees were planted adjacent to the roadside reserve on Meridian and Norman Rds. This planting now makes up a corridor which now links to the reserve.[/fusion_builder_column][fusion_builder_column type=”1_1″ background_position=”left top” background_color=”” border_size=”” border_color=”” border_style=”solid” spacing=”yes” background_image=”” background_repeat=”no-repeat” padding=”” margin_top=”0px” margin_bottom=”0px” class=”” id=”” animation_type=”” animation_speed=”0.3″ animation_direction=”left” hide_on_mobile=”no” center_content=”no” min_height=”none”]Yelta Landcare.Another 110 trees were provided to the Mildura Motorcycle Club. The MMC recently had a major upgrade of their facilities and they were keen to extend the working bees to include the surrounding land. When the club heard that Fifteen Trees could offer them trees – they jumped at the opportunity.[/fusion_builder_column][fusion_builder_column type=”1_1″ background_position=”left top” background_color=”” border_size=”” border_color=”” border_style=”solid” spacing=”yes” background_image=”” background_repeat=”no-repeat” padding=”” margin_top=”0px” margin_bottom=”0px” class=”” id=”” animation_type=”” animation_speed=”0.3″ animation_direction=”left” hide_on_mobile=”no” center_content=”no” min_height=”none”]Motorcycle Club’s grounds.Huge thank you to Di and Brad Stanbrook of G.J. Gardner Homes Mildura, who are very enthusiastic supporters of the Fifteen Trees program. All up they have helped 330 trees to ‘get into the ground’ this year. Their support has been invaluable and very much appreciated by the community groups who took up the offer of the trees.Thank you too to Rae Jeffers who coordinated the planting of all these trees.Slainte – Colleen[/fusion_builder_column][/fusion_builder_row][/fusion_builder_container]
There’s something quietly powerful about a person who decides, on their own, to do something good for the planet. No fanfare, no corporate mandate – just a simple choice to put a few trees in the ground. When hundreds of individuals make that same choice, something remarkable happens. Native forests are restored, wildlife corridors are rebuilt, and community groups across Australia get to do the work they love. So if you’ve ever purchased trees through Fifteen Trees, thank you.
‘Tree planting is about far more than restoring the landscape, it’s about bringing people together to care for the places we all value. Thank you for your generous support for the farmers, students, volunteers and conservation partners who are helping create healthier habitat for Tasmania’s unique wildlife while inspiring the next generation of environmental stewards’.
