Yering Station x Tree Project

Published on: 17th November 2025

FROM BARE GROUND TO A THRIVING HABITAT IN THE MAKING

Recently, our team along with passionate volunteers planted 4,000+ native trees, shrubs and grasses on our Yering Station estate site in partnership with TreeProject and the Yarra Ranges Council’s Ribbons of Green program. ⁠
Visible from the Melba Highway, you’ll see these seedlings transform into a rich, thriving corridor over time.⁠

This broader project spans various sites on our property, with 1000 plants also planted on our Laura Barnes Vineyard site. A living testament to our sustainability commitments and respect of the land we steward.

WHY DOES IT MATTER?

Because healthy vineyards and healthy ecosystems go hand in hand. Planting a rich mix of native species, from River Bottlebrush to Golden Wattle, helps restore habitats, stabilise soil, improve water retention and so much more. This rich biodiversity creates a more balanced and resilient environment for our vines to thrive today, tomorrow, for years to come.⁠

GREAT WINE IS MADE IN THE VINEYARD.

And our vineyard’s future potential is dependent on the ecosystems we nurture today. A huge thank you to our incredible team, organisation partners and volunteers who all turned out in force.⁠
