Yesterday was truly special! 🌱✨

A heartfelt thank you to all the hands in every stage of making this event happen alongside Mandingalbay Yidinji Aboriginal Corporation RNTBC. Special shout out to our MLCG field crews, Vinny, Lisa and Dale Mundraby for bringing us all together! Our precious planting friends both new and old ~ Dulabed and Malanbarra Yidinji Aboriginal Corporation RNTBC, Madjandji Aboriginal Corporation, Silver Lining School Cairns and Co, Bori Muy, WTMA, CRC sustainability team and anyone else we may have missed. It was such a joy to gather, plant, learn and share together on Country. A big thank you to landholder Brad for allowing us to do this work and of course, feeding us all! It’s been a big week ~ 1200ish trees in the ground with few more to go. But for now, we rest 🙂 Grateful for you all, thank you!! 💚

Wishing you all a Happy New Year 🎄✨

It’s been a massive year for us, and we truly couldn’t have done it without each and every one of you. Together we collected 67.925 kg of native seed, potted 10,174 seedlings in the nursery, and planted over 10,000 trees across all our sites.

Thank you for your time, dedication and community spirit. It truly is a team effort to achieve all that we have, and we’re incredibly grateful. We hope you’re enjoying a well earned break, surrounded by loved ones and are keeping safe through the wet weather and on the roads.

🌱 Our Community Nursery Days will return Tuesday, 20th January.

Here are some photos that haven’t made it up yet… feel free to tag yourselves.

See you all next year...🌞🌿

It’s been great to have students and teachers from Gordonvale State High School come to the MLCG nursery and tree planting sites this year.

We look forward to continuing the program and extending the student’s learning throughout next year.

Also, thank you for helping with seed collection!
