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 planting a former weed-filled roadside reserve with 920 trees. With generous donations from Rainforest 4 and the public, 550 trees are now fully funded and planted. Cassowaries and Bennett's Tree-kangaroos are regularly sighted here. You can help finish this area by donating here
