It’s National Tree Day on Sunday 30 July and Chris Whiting MP will be again giving away young native seedlings to local residents.
Chris hopes this will inspire people to get out in their gardens or community spaces and plant more trees to make it a “greener” community.
“It would be great to see young children prompted to go into their gardens to plant and tend to these young trees and shrubs,” Chris Whiting said.
This year, Chris will be giving away seedlings at specific times, at the following locations:
The Hub (Corner Buckley & Uhlmann Road, Burpengary) – 9am – 10:30am next to Spicerite.
The Deception Bay Market Place (Bay Avenue, Deception Bay – 11am – 12:30pm inside near the post office.
The Hilltop Shopping Centre (71 Astley Parade, North Lakes) – 12:45pm – 1:45pm near the IGA.
“Come and have a chat with me about the importance of what planting one little tree can do for our environment and our health,” said Chris Whiting.
