Keep It Cool, the Snowy Mountains based environmental group, focusses on planting trees to help fight climate change. It is a direction action that has a visible result and since its launch in May 2020, Keep it Cool has planted 15000 trees in the Snowy Mountains and its next planting season starts this weekend.

Trees For Tomorrow

We’re stoked to be partnering with Capital Brewing again in 2022 with their ‘Trees For Tomorrow’initiative. After a MASSIVE winter in the Snowies we managed to raise twice as much as 2021. So, we’re planting over 1500 trees thanks to all the thirsty punters who made the trip to the mountains this winter and bought a few Capital beers. Cheers to that.

Victor Smorgan Group Grant

We’re delighted to receive $10000 from Victor Smorgan Group as part of their family philanthropy program. This will help us plant 2000 trees in the Snowy Mountains.
