We have given away more than 19,700 plants to ratepayers, schools and community groups over the last year as part of our Free Native Plant Program.
And, with more than 100 volunteers already registered to take part in Sunday’s National Tree Day in Mackay, there are obviously more than a few green thumbs in our region.
To help guide council’s approach towards future greening initiatives, an urban greening survey is now open for comment.
The survey is seeking feedback from the community on a planned approach towards enhancing and protecting greenery in our region’s urban areas, which would include planting more trees on local streets and in public spaces.
