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

Our current project is a former weedy bank, which we are replacing with 209 rainforest trees; funded by generous donations from the public and from Rainforest 4. This is a known Bennett's Tree-kangaroo crossing point and the planting will hopefully allow these rare animals to cross the road without coming down to the ground.
