Adopt a Tree -- BOOKED OUT

We’re giving away semi-mature trees to residents within the Penrith LGA to help increase tree canopy across the City.

The trees available through the Adopt a Tree program were grown locally at the Penrith Council Nursery. Bookings are required to reserve a tree.

Why tree planting?

Planting trees is one of the easiest and best ways to manage our susceptibility to heat. While Penrith has seen a significant increase in tree canopy over the last few years — even establishing itself as a leader among other local government areas — we still have suburbs that are low canopy and susceptible to heat during the hotter months.

Planting on private property is a great way to not only improve the amenity of our suburbs, but a fantastic way to ensure our streets are cool during summer.

What are the benefits of planting trees in this area?

Increasing greenery on private property can:

• provide shade and help passively cool homes during summer,

• attract birdlife and pollinator species to your garden,

• and improve and support Penrith’s unique biodiversity

How do I participate?
