It’s that time again!!  Last year Free Plants For Schools had such a wonderful response from the schooling community right across the Sunshine Coast, and with Schools National Tree Day coming up on the 26th July, we thought we had better have another go at it.

Coolum Community Native Nursery is offering free native plants for Sunshine Coast Schools from 9th July, 2013.  The nursery is producing large quantities of quality local native tube stock plants, and it’s time we gave some away free of charge to our fantastic community of kids (and their parents and teachers!)

Here’s how it works:

  • A representative of the school contacts the nursery to discuss the schools local native plant needs
  • The nursery donates plants to schools as they require, especially advanced stock that is sufficient quality for enhancing school grounds
  • Plants to be collected as soon as possible (by the 31st July if possible) by the school to clear the stock from nursery
  • School reports the donation in its newsletter and other publicity material
  • School receives nursery bookmarks and “Our Locals are Beauties” brochures for promotion of the nursery and education of students, staff and parents
  • Plant quantities are subject to availability and at the discretion of nursery manager
  • Schools are welcome to purchase additional stock when they come to collect their free plants
  • Offer limited to Sunshine Coast public and private schools
  • All donations are to be as fair and reasonable and inclusive as possible, within limitations of available stock at any given time.
