    We’ve officially hit the goal — 500 native trees!

    Honestly, I didn’t expect things to take off like this. The support has been incredible — from donations to messages to people offering their time and advice. It’s made a huge difference.

    A massive thank you to everyone who has backed this challenge so far. This has well and truly become a team effort.

    With the goal reached, I’m going to keep the page open a little longer. Any additional funds will go directly towards plant guards and extra trees — helping give these plants the best possible chance to survive and thrive.

    If you’ve already donated — thank you. If you’ve been following along — appreciate you. And if you’re still keen to get involved, there’s still time.

    Next step: getting all 500 (and maybe a few more) in the ground 👊🌱
