Applications to Adopt-a-Tree for the 2022 planting season are now closed, but will reopen for the 2023 planting season in September 2022.
Are you a resident in the City of Holdfast Bay? As part of our new Adopt-a-Tree program, you can register for a new tree to be planted on your verge. All you need to do is water it!
Residents can contribute to our target to increase canopy cover from 15.3% in 2018 to 16.8% in 2030. Trees are one of our most important natural assets. There are many benefits of healthy street trees including cooler streets, reduced storm water run-off, improved air quality, noise reduction, added privacy, increased house prices, improved well-being, and habitat for birds and other wildlife.
Registration is free and open from September to February each year, with an allocation of 100 trees annually. Trees will be issued on a first-come, first-served basis. Once we assess the area for suitability, we will advise you of the outcome during March and April.
