[Insert Program Name]

South Australia has always asked you to tread lightly. This is how you give back.

South Australia is the artisan corner of the country. Wild coast, red outback, vineyards and forest, and the people who know how to share them. We have always wanted visitors to get closer to the real South Australia, and to look after it while they are here.

[Insert program name] turns that care into something you can measure. When you visit a business in the program, part of what you spend funds native restoration across our regions, planted and tended by local partners on the ground. You can see exactly what has been put back in the dashboard below.

How it works

Restoration built into the places you already visit across South Australia.

Local operators lead

Tourism businesses across our regions fund native restoration as part of what they already do.

You add to it

Every visit can put more native species back into the ground across South Australia.

Our forests come back

Burnt and cleared country is replanted, and habitat returns for the wildlife that belongs here.

The proof

See what South Australia is putting back

Live restoration across the program, project by project and site by site.

For operators

Put restoration into every stay, tour and table.

Join the operators already funding native planting across the state, and give your guests a reason to choose you.

In practice it is simple. A share of each booking, stay or experience goes to restoration projects chosen for South Australia, and every contribution is tracked to the species and the site. Small amounts, multiplied across a whole state of visitors, add up to real country restored.

FEATURED PROJECT

Mannavale Farm Bushfire Recovery

In the Mount Lofty country of the Adelaide Hills, this site sits within the 25,000 hectares burnt in the 2019 Cudlee Creek bushfire. The program is replanting a range of native species to bring back forest habitat lost to fire and decades of clearing, rebuilding a critically endangered ecosystem and the wildlife that depends on it.

Restoration partner: Trees for Life
Restoring and protecting South Australian landscapes since 1981, with close to 40 million trees planted across the state.

South Australia has built its name on doing things with more care than scale. This program lets every visit add to the place rather than just pass through it, and it gives us the proof to stand behind that promise.
