One Tree Per Child

We are proud to be partnering with the One Tree Per Child initiative through Garden Centres Australia.
OTPC began as a grassroots tree-planting initiative in schools, councils and communities, with the aim of encouraging every child to plant at least one tree before they leave school.
One Tree Per Child was founded by Olivia Newton-John and Jon Dee in 2015, and now, through GCA,
OTPC is rolling out as an ongoing program to engage children and promote gardening as a wonderful activity for the whole family.
“We’re rallying all green-thumbed grandparents and parents to visit their local Garden Centre. The mission? Purchase a plant – be it a tree, shrub, or even an indoor plant – and get planting with their grandchildren or children.
Together, we can make a lasting impact on the environment and inspire children and families to embrace the joy of gardening.”

*Every tree or shrub purchased for One Tree Per Child will come with a commemorative certificate to be signed by the grandparent or custodian. It’s not just a plant; it’s a memory waiting to blossom. The Certificate will be part of a Presentation Pack containing a Planting Guide, Activity Ideas for the Young, an invitation to join a quarterly gardening Enews, and more.
