The first year of FAME’s Enrichment Program – delivered in partnership with ReForest Now, is now complete. This innovative, three-year project is helping restore critically endangered Lowland Rainforest of Subtropical Australia, one of the most fragmented ecosystems in the country.
In Year One, 12,000 native rainforest trees were planted across eight key enrichment sites, rebuilding habitat for native wildlife and particularly species threatened by habitat loss, fragmentation, and climate change. By restoring corridors and re-establishing diverse plant life, the program strengthens biodiversity, improves seed dispersal, and boosts ecosystem resilience.
In a snapshot:
8 enrichment planting sites
522 new species
12,000 new trees planted
58.42ha of forest enriched
