Photographs should be in landscape format and have a minimum resolution of 300 dpi.
Entries can be emailed to taniak@treesforlife.org.au
. And please send accompanying information such as photographer’s name, plant species, animal species, where the photograph was taken and a personal comment about the photo.
Do you know someone exceptional?
Thank You Tree awards are given each year to people who have given outstanding service to Trees For Life, either over a short period or over many years.
Nominations are accepted from TFL members and nominees must also be members. Recipients receive a framed certificate and a tree is planted for them. Since 2002 the trees have been planted at Monarto Zoological Park as part of their Trees for Life revegetation program.
If you would like to nominate someone for a Thank You Tree award, please complete the form and return it to us by fax or mail. Nominations will be accepted until August 31.
Successful nominees will be chosen by the Thank You Tree Committee and will be subject to acceptance by the Board and CEO.
Do you have any ideas about alternative ways of recognizing and rewarding our volunteers? If so, please let us know!

Trees For Life has now completed the wonderful partnership with Paramount Pictures which saw us growing one tree for each copy of Al Gore’s global warming documentary An Inconvenient Truth
, sold in Australia last year.
Through this partnership we have been able to provide free trees to a number of local councils across South Australia.
The trees will be used to revegetate public and private land and provide an ongoing environmental benefit through habitat creation, soil and erosion control and water quality improvements.
The plants are being dispersed far and wide through participating councils Karoonda, Barunga West, Yorke Peninsula, Tatiara, Tumby Bay, Tea Tree Gully, Clare and Gilbert, Charles Sturt, Yankalilla, Marion, Murray Bridge, Victor Harbor, Goyder, Playford, Mallala and Port Pirie.
