« Everyone has a role to play in restoring nature » says Tim Jarvis AM, founder of Forktree Project. Tim is a remarkable Antarctic explorer, environmental scientist, filmmaker, and founder of Forktree in Australia who has been recognised globally for his leadership in rewilding and nature restoration. And Forktree just joined the alliance! Forktree is showing what is possible in terms of habitat restoration, regenerative agriculture and improved land and water management. Their ultimate goal is to restore nature; both habitats and native wildlife all the while including local knowledge and consideration of climate change. Their teams are bringing back rare and endangered, pre-European native habitat with a goal to return a degraded 133-acre former pastoral property in South Australia’s Fleurieu Peninsula back to nature. To achieve this, they are actively restoring habitat by re-establishing native trees and shrubs and expanding their impact by running a seed orchard for rare native plants combined with educational programmes. In just 4 growing seasons, they’ve achieved something remarkable: • Planted over 20,000 native trees, shrubs, and grasses • Established habitat for 105 fauna species, including rare Elegant Parrots • Created a 2,000 tree Sheoak habitat for endangered Glossy Black Cockatoos Key highlights: • 90%+ plant survival rate • Collaborative effort with Conservation Volunteers Australia • Partnering with First Nations land managers (Ngarrindjeri and Kaurna peoples) • Potential to sequester thousands of tonnes of carbon Forktree inspires us, proving we can heal landscapes, support biodiversity, and combat climate change through thoughtful, holistic restoration. #Rewilding #HopeIntoAction #GenerationRestoration
