Do we truly understand the importance of our urban forests? The mature native trees in our suburb—whether in parks, backyards, or lining our streets—are incredibly valuable. Without them, we risk hotter suburbs, poorer air quality, and the loss of daily encounters with native wildlife. Sadly, these life-giving allies are disappearing across South East Queensland at an alarming rate. That’s why we’ve embraced the term Urban Forest Defenders—local residents who recognise the vital role a healthy, well-established tree canopy plays in keeping Forestdale leafy, liveable, and valuable as an acreage estate. If this resonates with you and you'd like to help protect the natural character of our suburb, join the growing resident-led movement. Become a member of Forest 4 Forestdale, where one of our key goals is to protect and enhance our urban forest—creating cooler, greener, and more liveable neighbourhoods. By signing up, you can also choose to become part of Tree Watch—a community initiative dedicated to monitoring, protecting, and growing the tree canopy across our streets and public spaces. To support this effort, Council is asking us to be the "eyes and ears" of the community—working together in partnership to help monitor ongoing activity and safeguard our urban forest.
