🌳 Do you have space on your land for native plants to create cooling canopy cover and shade? 🐦

🍃 Greater Sydney Landcare's Creating Canopies project is partnering with private landowners with space for 100 or more trees, and public landowners with space for 1,000 or more trees. ✨

💚 We'll provide you with free plants and organise a day for volunteers to come and plant them for you too. 🌱

Comment 'Free Trees' if you'd like us to send you the link to find out more about registering your site for trees. We'd love to work with you in 2024.
