St Brigid’s Paddock
TREES PLANTED
The Sisters Of St Brigid have had a busy time planting 1000’s of trees on a parcel of donated land at Shoreham Vic. Brigid’s Paddock (as it is now called) is slowly being re-vegetated from pasture to forest through the generous support of Aaron Bones (33 trees), Jennifer Forest (15 trees), Julie Phillips (15 trees) and Helen Rowan (2 trees as gifts).
Aaron is manager/owner of new restaurant in Grill’d Ballarat. Aaron has generously donated $100 to Fifteen Trees. Every month Grill’d encourage their customers to support local organisations by adding tokens to the ‘community jars’. The initiative is called – Local Matters. Every month, 3 new organisations are highlighted and in October, Fifteen Trees was fortunate enough to become involved.
Thank you to Aaron, Helen, Jennifer (I want her surname) and dear friend Julie. Your donations have allowed another 65 trees to be planted by Sr Anne Boyd and her supporters at the St Brigidine Order.

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’.
