Thanks to the energy and teamwork of volunteers from a range of local businesses, we planted 2,900 native seedlings, restoring the landscape at Guildford Meadows, creating a biodiverse habitat and climate-resilient ecosystem.
Huge thanks to the teams from CLE Planning, Scott Print and Knight Frank.
Our Impact
- 2,900 trees planted in one day
- Supporting 23 native species through restoration of biodiverse ecosystems
- Building habitat for a wide range of birds, frogs and pollinators
- Contributing to urban canopy in Perth which will play an important part in reducing local temperatures
Located on the banks of the Derbal Yerrigan (Swan River) in Caversham, the Mandoon Moitch (Guildford Meadows) restoration project contains a significant remnant wetland, once surrounded by riparian vegetation and a Eucalyptus rudis (Moitch / Flooded Gum) Woodland which was cleared in the 1930s.
Now a part of Whiteman Park, it provides viable habitat for threatened and at-risk native animal species, and is home to significant, registered cultural sites of the local Noongar people.
Mandoon Moitch is considered an area of significant environmental importance, due to its impressive population of native flora and fauna, and that its water flows from the Gnangara Water Mound.
Since 2016, volunteers have planted over 100,000 trees on this key restoration site.
Encouraging local community members to engage in nature-based solutions helps to educate everyone about the importance of trees, and empower individuals to overcome eco anxiety about the future health of our planet.
Trillion Trees receives no ongoing Government funding - this work is possible thanks to the generous support of corporate groups, private donors and sponsors. Please donate here
