Offsetting carbon emissions at Illabarook, Victoria
TREES PLANTED
When you carbon offset your car or flight with Fifteen Trees, you get to see exactly where your trees have been planted and you directly support our rural environment and communities.
The gorgeous company Angus & Celeste (fine jewellery and accessories) have become new Fifteen Tree supporters. They have committed to donating $1.00 from every sale from their beautiful range of jewellery, clothing and home wares. If you love locally made products (and who doesn’t), bright colours and quirky designs then have a look at what this Australian company produces.
As a result of Angus & Celeste’s green vision, 80 trees have been planted by the Ballarat Environmental Network (BEN) at the Illabarook Rail Reserve (Central Victoria). The group planting the trees have written below.
Dear Colleen,
At the Illabarook Planting Day, we had members of the York St Play Group join us to have a lovely two hour planting session with their children. Cheers, and thanks once again for your terrific support; paying for the trees planted at these activities will enable our Caring for our Country grant to be driven further than originally planned.

I am delighted to have Angus & Celeste as partners with Fifteen Trees. Our aim is a simple one – to restore our native environment by supplying trees to those who are willing to do the hard work and go out to plant them.
Cheers – Colleen
The number of trees planted with the assistance of Fifteen Trees supporters – 4955.
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’.
