Donate a tree

$5.00 AUD
Approx $3.21 USD

Description:

When you adopt a tree with Tamworth Regional Landcare Association (TRLA) we plant a tree in local areas that are being restored and cared for by local Landcare groups.

We select native species endemic to our region that support natural ecosystems and wildlife, creating habitats that are more resilient to Australia’s climate. We collect the seed locally, propagate it locally and plant it locally with support of Landcare volunteers and groups from across the region. Our Community Nursery volunteers tend to your donation until a local Landcare group is ready to plant your tree in its new home.

Trees can help sequester carbon and thereby reduce the impact of man-made CO2 emissions. Locally, trees provide habitat for wildlife, food for people and animals, and stabilise the soil. A gift of a tree lasts for generations.

$5 will donate one native tree or shrub to a local Landcare project and will contribute to the management and monitoring of our planting projects.

You can help TRLA support the tree planting activities being carried out by Landcare groups. You can choose how many trees to plant and in turn you will be the recipient of the tree-planting certificate. All certificates will be delivered electronically.

Your trees will be planted within the Tamworth region by local volunteers doing their bit for the environment.

For more information on the program contact Paul Moxon 0425 337 475.

Please note, when you are purchasing trees through our donation program, you are making a donation to our local Landcare network and the trees will be donated to a local group for an environmental project. You will not receive a tree.

DCCEEW Stakeholder Survey

As part of ongoing stakeholder consultation, the NSW Department of Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water has developed a short survey to better understand how climate change is impacting restoration projects across the state.
The survey aims to: 

  • Capture local experiences of climate risks and impacts on restoration efforts,
  • Identify whether climate adaptation actions are being considered or implemented, and
  • Understand what information, tools, or resources could better support restoration practitioners in planning for a changing climate.


We are hoping to reach a wide range of practitioners, planners and policy makers working in ecological restoration across NSW and would greatly appreciate your help in circulating this survey through your networks.

The survey takes approximately 20 minutes to complete and does not collect any personal or identifying information. All responses will be reviewed carefully to ensure they remain anonymous.

Please feel free to forward this message and survey link to any colleagues, project partners or relevant contacts who may be interested in contributing. The broader the reach, the better the insights we can gather to support effective, climate-resilient restoration in NSW.
