Bronwyn Rust is the owner and founder of Yogaville, a beautiful Iyengar yoga studio located in Preston Vic. This year I once again planted 90 trees on her behalf to reduce the carbon footprint of the yoga studio. Bronwyn’s trees went to the beautiful district of Baw Baw, just north of Melbourne, Victoria.
Karla Rutherford, environmental office with the Shire, along with a host of volunteers, planted Bronwyn’s trees (90) at Brooker Park. Scroll to the bottom to find the link to a great video from the day.
Hello Colleen, Please find attached a photo of Baw Baw Shire’s National Tree Day event at Brooker Park, Warragul on Sunday 30th July. Funds from Fifteen Trees were used to continue restoration works along Hazel Creek. In total 1030 plants were installed by community volunteers, 300 of which were supplied by supporters of Fifteen Trees. A combination of trees, shrubs and grasses were installed to replicate the vegetation type that previously occurred at the site. A total of 53 volunteers participated on the day, making a significant contribution to improving the local environment.
Massive thank you to Yogaville and your support of Fifteen Trees, and in turn … us!
Karla Rutherford | Environmental Officer | Baw Baw Shire

At the heart of every nunnery is, of course, charity. We love our partnership with the Brigidine Sisters and are impressed with their passion to give. That’s a long history of giving from these remarkable women, and we are not only benefactors of this kindness, as their other philanthropy does ripple out to myriad of other organisations as well.
WPA acknowledges that when it comes to environmental initiatives, its people are its strength. It has recently partnered with us to plant 15 trees for each hard-working staff member identified as a Sustainability Warrior.
