Join ALEC for a Community Tree Planting Workshop! 🌱

Come along for a practical and inspiring day of learning, connection and community as we explore how planting trees can help create cooler, greener and more resilient neighbourhoods.

The day will begin with a welcome tea and chance to connect, followed by presentations on the importance of urban greening and local environmental action, including a short talk from ALEC. We’ll then hear from Olive Pink Botanical Garden, who will share practical advice and hands-on knowledge about planting and caring for trees in Central Australia.

After a shared lunch, we’ll wrap up the day with everyone taking home a tree to plant in their own garden, helping grow a greener community, one tree at a time.
