Amanda Hood has got her Xmas organised this year and it is going to be GREEN! Amanda has asked Fifteen Trees to plant 13 trees as gifts on the behalf of her family and friends.

To Janie & Raffo – 2 trees, Tori – 3 trees, Katie – 2 trees and to Guy, Nick, Olly, Andrew, Vicki & Mark, and Kim & Tim – 1 tree each.
The trees went out to the Little Llangothlin Lagoon. This unique wetland is perched on the northern NSW tablelands. The Landcare group there are working with the landholders to improve the inflow catchment into the lakes. In other words; to improve the water quality by planting out native vegetation.

The area is just beautiful but in need of larger trees.
Thank you Amanda for finding Fifteen Trees and for your support of our native environment. I know you live in NSW, maybe a visit to the Llangothlin Lagoon is in order? If you do go, be sure to take some photos for me!

‘Sometimes there are really simple things everyone can do to reduce their carbon footprint. When staying at a hotel, choosing to skip the room cleaning and having a tree planted instead, is one of those things’. Hugo from Hotels for Trees.
‘We’re thrilled to team up with Fifteen Trees in this crucial effort. Koalas are an iconic Australian species, and with increasing threats to their natural environment, it’s never been more important to ensure they have access to suitable habitats.Planting these trees is just the beginning of a broader initiative to safeguard their future’. Ballarat Wildlife Park
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.
