Lev from The Tree Experts contacted Fifteen Trees looking to plant trees to replace the trees he has had to remove from Melbourne properties. The 100 trees for Lev went out to the Brigidine Sisters at Shoreham. The Sisters were donated a parcel of land which they named St Brigid’s Paddock. The paddock was sadly lacking in native vegetation, let alone native trees. Over the winter/spring the Sisters planted 165 trees of which 100 came from Lev.

Thank you Lev for your support. As you can see, your trees have been handed onto some astute gardeners who are looking to revegetate an entire paddock into a self-sustaining native forest.

We cannot do without trees nor bees. Ana and Sven from Amber Drop Honey, recognise that we are all interconnected, and that there is no future in taking without giving back.
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.
