OUR AIMS
Working in conjunction with Douglas Shire Council, various stakeholders and private landowners, our aims are to identify key areas of land for suitable revegetation to promote positive outcomes for the Daintree ecosystem and the broader environment, expand the tourism experience, and help the local economy.
CURRENT PROJECT
We are currently working on clearing a large area of introduced bramble to plant hundreds of memorial rainforest trees. Pictured here are our mayor and 5 local police officers who planted 140 trees in honour of Sen. Constable David Masters and others who lost their lives in the line of duty.
