GRCC funded launch of a community campaign to nominate and vote for favourite trees, tree planting workshops, Great Tamar Tree Trail plaques, and stands at community events including Harvest Market and the Beaconsfield Expo.
Launceston residents, schools, community groups, and the broader Tamar region community.

The project engaged schools and community groups in tree planting workshops. A 2024 tree plaque ceremony was held with an art exhibition and free tree seedlings. Stands at Harvest Market during Plastic Free July and at the Beaconsfield Expo promoted tree canopy awareness, supporting the Urban Forest Strategy goal of increasing canopy from 19% to 40% by 2040.
