National Tree Day 29th July
  Icon Calendar
Every year TM Landcare, like other community groups across Australia, celebrates our natural heritage by planting trees.

This year, on Sunday 29th July, we're hosting a family-friendly community planting morning at Guanaba Park, Siganto St, Tamborine Mountain.

Mark this date in your diary and, if you can, come along with family or friends to plant a tree to grow our forest environment and share morning tea with friendly neighbours.

Watch for more details in the next Newsflash and our local newspapers.

Our recent monster book sale was a huge success! Enthusiastic locals scrabbled through the boxes and came away delighted with bags of books. These sales, as well as the regular takings at our Piccabeen Bookshop, help fund our ongoing projects. We thank the volunteers who keep the shop running smoothly year after year.
