National Tree Day will be held on Sunday 2nd August, with Schools Tree Day taking place on the Friday 31st July. Last year over 312 000 people, including 229,000 school children dug deep to improve their natural surroundings. Tree Day shows children how easy and fun it is to help our environment.
Environmental Benefits
National Tree Day aims to inspire, educate and recruit Australians to actively care for our unique land and create future generations of committed environmental custodians.
Local Native Plants
There are many reasons why planting native plants that are local to your area (also known as local provenance) is important.
Planting for Climate Change
Plants help to combat climate change by locking up carbon, but there are more ways that native plants can help address the impacts of climate change.
Planting for Biodiversity
Before Climate Change was the "hot" topic in the environmental debate, the loss of biodiversity was internationally recognised as being the major threat facing the future of life on our planet.
