We are planting indigenous rainforest species on areas comprised of old unused service roads, key areas of weedy roadside reserve, and on private freehold land. When selecting areas, we look at ease of access, local council or other guidelines, community concerns, and identify areas of high value - regarding increasing habitat and wildlife food resource, expanding or creating corridors, and adding demonstrable value to the Daintree area.
We have limited capacity personally to grow many of our trees, but instead mainly source from local nurseries who grow locally sourced indigenous seeds.
We carefully select the species to plant in all areas based on sound research to match as closely as possible to the immediate ecological integrity.
We are working with our local council, landholders and the community to identify and plant multiple areas in the Daintree which are currently degraded and/or covered with weeds and in the process are able to return this land to valuable habitat for the native wildlife.
