Green Adelaide is creating a cooler, greener, wilder and more climate-resilient city that celebrates our unique culture.

Adelaide’s first dedicated urban environmental specialist organisation, Green Adelaide focuses on guiding the people of Adelaide’s love of and connection with nature, and will practically create a cooler, greener and wilder capital city.

Core partners Green Adelaide established the Pelzer Prize in 2021 to honour South Australia's green heroes, conservation leaders and champions of the environment. The annual award is named for Adelaide’s first city gardener – August Wilhelm Pelzer.

Green Adelaide's Pelzer Prize became part of the SA Environment Awards in 2022.
