Phillip Island

TREES PLANTED

  Phillip Island 495 trees  
  With the generous help from GJ Gardner Homes through the Fifteen Trees Program, the Phillip Island Landcare Group undertook the planting of 210 plants on a Ventnor property of David Rooks. These plants were planted in June 2020 prior to the second COVID lockdown. There was a school group from the Village School on Phillip Island who came and planted several hundred plants on the site, followed up by Landcare community members who then planted the balance of the plants the following week. David Rooks whose property the planting took place said, ‘We are so grateful to GJ Gardner Homes and the 15 Trees program for their help in providing these plants we are establishing on our property, to help enhance biodiversity and provide many other positive environmental outcomes. Many thanks to the Fifteen Trees Program and GJ Gardner Homes for their ongoing assistance to the Phillip Island Landcare Group in supporting the revegetation program on the Island.  This help is contributing greatly toward the enhancement and growth of the Phillip Island Wildlife Corridor and improving the quality of environment in our unique landscape. Thank you. Geoff Trease | Treasure | Bass Coast Landcare

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.

We have a handful of organisations and small companies, who purchase trees when they can. These people are masters of ingenuity when it comes to incorporating tree planting into their business practices.
