Throughout last year, and despite all the challenges it brought, Greenfleet continued to focus on protecting our climate by restoring our forests. Your support allowed us to continue taking practical action on the ground and we are proud of what we have been able to achieve together.

The festive season is well upon us and while we look forward to spending time with our loved ones, we also want to ensure that the impact on the Earth is minimised. No matter how you will be spending this Christmas, giving sustainably is a way that you can share your care for the environment while also celebrating with your loved ones.

Ness Creek is situated in the picturesque region of South Gippsland on land traditionally owned by the Boonwurrung people. Originally cleared for cattle and sheep grazing in the early 20th century, it is now home to a productive free-range egg farm. The farm owners contacted Greenfleet with an interest in reforesting the vast areas of their land that were no longer needed for grazing. 

This week is NAIDOC Week for 2020. Today, and always, Greenfleet acknowledges the traditional custodians of the land throughout Australia and pays respect to their Elders, past, present and emerging. In particular, we honour their deep connection to Country and pay respect to their knowledge and wisdom in caring for Country.

Travel 30 minutes north of Wedderburn in Central Victoria and you will find Pearson; a 340-hectare property that forms part of the Wychitella biolink. In an area previously used for farming, Greenfleet is working with the traditional custodians of the land, the Dja Dja Wurrung people, and Cassinia Environmental to revegetate the property with native trees and grasses.

Life’s momentous occasions, achievements or milestones hold special meaning for each of us, so we often want to acknowledge them in a significant way. From birthdays or anniversaries to remembering the life of someone we love, many of life’s moments call for celebration.
