Helping create a clearer environment

Australia's largest tree-planting event
 
Since its inception in 1996, National Tree Day has grown to be Australia’s largest community tree-planting and nature care event.
A chance to roll up your sleeves
It’s a day that allows Australians to come together, roll up their sleeves and get their hands dirty for the environment. Planting trees and shrubs is a fun, simple and effective way to help enrich our earth and protect nature’s wildlife.
Bring community together
Toyota will continue to inspire, educate and recruit more people from local communities to maintain our beautiful environment for future generations.
