Planet Ark's National Tree Day 2026

Get Outside & Grow for National Tree Day

Planet Ark's National Tree Day is Australia's biggest community tree-planting event.

Since Tree Day started in 1996 over 10.5 million native trees and shrubs have been planted by more than a million volunteers! Planting is done on the last Sunday of July.

Tree planting makes a positive difference to our environment and the benefits reach into schools and communities and also help our precious native animals and plants survive in Australia's diverse natural settings.

Planet Ark and Toyota are calling on all Australians to Get Outside and Grow and help make nature a part of our everyday lives where we live learn work and play.

There are more ways to branch out and help. Not only can you organise or attend a planting or activity at a park beach school or nature reserve.
