The Tree Scheme provides below-cost local native seedlings for rural landholders or revegetation projects
The ordering season opens on May 1 and closes July 31 of each year - you must be a financial member to order.
Grow up to 1000 seedlings yourself for only $50 (or have 500 seedlings grown by a volunteer)
Your local native seedlings will be ready to plant the following Autumn - they are:
o Are highly water efficient
o Have a high survival rate
o Will not become a weed species
o Enhance the natural landscape
o Are adapted to local conditions
You can also Direct Seed your property
Trees For Life Direct Seeding offers a specialised service in broadscale revegetation to match your location:
o Fast and large scale planting
o Years of experience
o Efficient broadacre planting
o A mix of local native species which improves the ecological balance of the revegetation, making it more robust and resistant to pests and diseases
o Complete project management, or revegetation plan for you to prepare and maintain the site yourself
Do you have 10 Ha or more in an area with an average rainfall of 350mm and would like a carbon planting on your property?
We cover the costs of revegetation and pay you a small stewardship fee to watch over and protect the plantings. To participate you must be willing to enter a formal legal agreement to protect the plantings for either 50 or 100 years. For more information ring the TFL office on 8406 0500 or call Dennis Hayles on 0429 142 499 to arrange a site visit.
