Started in 1996, National Tree Day is coming up on Sunday 28 July 2019. Each year, about 300,000 people volunteer their time and it has grown into Australia's largest community tree-planting and nature care event welcoming everyone to get involved.



So time to get outdoors, get your hands dirty and join in the fun at one of the many community events on all around the country.



The City of Stonnington will be running their Community tree planting day between 10:00 am - 12:30 pm Sunday 28 July 2019.

Register online and head down to help improve the local environment and enhance biodiversity within the beautiful Glen Iris wetlands area. Explore the area on a tour and learn more about the flora and wildlife that call the wetlands home.

Bring your own gloves and a trowel where possible for planting. Watering cans, buckets and of course young tree varieties, will be provided for on the day. Wear warm clothes, closed toes and come prepared in case of rain - this is Melbourne in July after all!

After all your hard work, enjoy a free BBQ lunch with your fellow tree planters and enjoy the community spirit knowing you've done your bit to make the world a little greener. Free drinking water will be available and don't forget to bring along a reusable water bottle.

The pergola next to the Gardiners Creek Trail and TH King Oval will be the meeting spot for the day and event staff and signs will point you in the right direction.



Getting there is easy with tram, train and bus stops only a few minutes away. Click here for a copy of a map of the area.
