TreeProject Graduate Programs & Internships

TreeProject gets urban and rural communities working together to put trees back on the land. Our network of trained volunteers grows indigenous seedlings for rural landholders and Landcare groups who need our help with revegetation.

Working together, we are restoring urgently needed indigenous vegetation and repairing Victoria’s damaged ecosystems. Our volunteers contribute their time and hard work to propagate and care for seedlings of Indigenous trees, shrubs and grasses in their own backyards.

What we do:

• Train volunteers to propagate indigenous trees, shrubs and grasses
• Support landholders to repair degraded land by providing at-cost indigenous plants
• Link city and country people to work together to tackle erosion, improve soil and water quality, and restore ecosystems
• Provide training and support for anyone in the community growing indigenous seedlings
• Develop skills and knowledge – building capacity in the community – for propagating Indigenous seedlings
• Foster community engagement through practical, achievable and enduring environmental projects
• Provide special project support through The TreeProject Nursery
• Raise awareness of the importance of revegetation
