Plant a tree with us 🌳

This year we're celebrating National Tree Day early, and planting a new run of shelter trees.

Each year we celebrate National Tree day with a mass planting event.  After the devastation to our region through drought, the unprecedented bushfires of 2019/2020, and ongoing flooding, we have created extensive new tree runs and an entire fruit orchard which in future years will provide fruit for the residents of Little Oak, and a stunning run of Black Myrtle trees to shelter our stables.  This year, we're planting a run of "Baby Blue" Eucalyptus trees to provide our animals and the wildlife with vital shelter from the harsh westerly winds.  Before you've planted your tree, we'll take you on a short tour of the sanctuary (up to 1 hour) where you can meet some of our residents and hear more about our work.

The entry price covers the cost of your tree, the tour and light vegan refreshments.  We have a limit of 20 trees however you can plant one as a couple, a group or a family. Children under 10 are free, but they must be supervised at all times.  If you can't make it on the day, you can still donate to fund a tree and our volunteers will plant it for you.  

The sanctuary is located between Bungendore and Braidwood, about an hour from Canberra, Goulburn or Batemans Bay, and 2.5 hours from Sydney.
