Trees For Life is a not for profit community based organisation working with everyday people to help restore our natural environment through revegetation and conservation. We raise funds to help protect wildlife habitat and work to re-establish biodiverse plantings on private land.
You can financially support TFL by joining 8,000 other members and becoming an ambassador through your donation to support the work that our 3,000+ volunteers do to protect our environment.
How will the funds be used?
Your financial contribution will be used to continue revegetation works around South Australia and the conservation of remnant vegetation.
- Cover the cost of materials for over 1000 volunteers grow around 800,000 seedlings annually - to ensure ecological diversity, only local native species are grown and the seed is collected mainly by volunteers, from the same area into which the seedlings will be planted.
- Since 1981 over 30 million native seedlings have been grown to plant on cleared land
- The direct seeding of native species on 1,800 hectares of rural land
- Train support and equip volunteers to remove noxious weeds, promoting natural recovery on 4,000 hectares of native vegetation that has never been cleared
