Plant Donation Program

The Fraser Coast Native Plant Donations Policy(PDF, 179KB) provides that eligible individuals and organisation may apply, or be invited to apply, to receive donated native plants for planting on lands within the Fraser Coast region.

Council invites applications for plant donations from the Fraser Coast Community Nursery Native Plant Donation initiative during the following periods:

Round 1: 1 April to 31 May – as relevant to National Tree Day project applications, with plants being available for collection in July of that same year.
Round 2: 1 September to 31 October – as relevant to all other project applications, with plants being available for collection March-April the following year.

A staged approach is required to allow for an appropriate growing period for plant orders. It will also ensure planting occurs during optimal seasonal conditions to mitigate the risk of planting failure.

The Guidelines outline who may apply, eligible projects, when and how applications can be submitted, and how plants can be collected.

Please refer to the application form and full guidelines below.
