Bushfire Recovery Program
Trees in Newcastle is pleased to announce that in June 2021 we were awarded a Foundation for National Parks & Wildlife (FNPW) Community Conservation Grant to participate in the Bushfire Recovery Program Nurseries.
Our nursery at Kalaroo Road Redhead, adjacent to Belmont Wetlands State Park has been selected to supply free trees to assist eligible landholders and community groups affected by the severe bushfires to plant native trees to restore habitat.
