Melbourne Bushwalkers 80th Anniversary

To commemorate Melbourne Bushwalkers 80th Anniversary  the Club’s committee has decided to plant 500 trees as a long term legacy  for the club. 

You can purchase 1 or more native trees by donating to our dedicated 80th Anniversary tree planting GoFundMe page.  The funds will be used for the 500 native tress and tree guards.  Each tree is - $8.15 and  the club will be contributing 50% of the cost. 

The club will organise and attend a tree-planting event (location to be confirmed) during winter 2021 and more details how you can get involved will be posted  closer to the date.

Fifteen Trees has been selected an independent, social enterprise company with established networks with Landcare, community groups and plant nurseries. Fifteen Trees has organised the planting of over 180,000 trees around Australia since its establishment in July 2009. They have overseen big projects with landholders and Landcare (10,000 trees at Kinglake, Vic) and small projects where local school children planted trees on their school grounds (15 trees at Creswick Primary School, Vic). Fifteen Trees helps individuals and companies reduce their carbon footprint through the support of community tree planting projects.
