We plant approximately 60,000 native seedlings per year of which about 60% are propagated in our nurseryWe involve 5,300 people per year through our community open days, corporate tree planting days and environmental education programs. This equates to us engaging at least 1 in every 22 people who live in the catchmentWe have created 362 ha of habitat for wildlifeWe have protected 462 ha of urban bushlandWe have committed over 300,000 volunteer hours
