2021 Free Tree Giveaway
In 2021, 13,500 households will be able to apply for free trees from two different partners:
between March and May, our partner, IndigiGrow – an all Aboriginal owned, run and staffed not-for-profit organisation in La Perouse will be providing trees for pick up from La Perouse Public School, Yarra Road, La Perouse
further opportunities for free trees will be announced in June 2021.
At the beginning of each month we will be making a limited number of the 13,500 orders available – so get in quick. Each month there will be different trees and quantities available.
If you’re planting a tree(s) outside of the Giveaway, please register it to make it count. Every tree planted gets us one step closer to planting one million trees by 2022.
Planting one million trees will provide more shade, cleaner air and more resilient places to live. To reach the target of one million trees we need individuals to play a part and plant trees in their own backyard.
