Paramedics rushed to a property at South Nanango on Wednesday afternoon after a man in his 50s became trapped under a tree.
Emergency services were called to the Izzard Road after receiving a report at 3pm that a palm tree had fallen on a man who was mowing at a private property.
The man was trapped for some time until fire crews were able to remove the tree, a Queensland Ambulance spokeswoman said.
He was freed about 4pm with head, hip and pelvis injuries and serious head injuries.
He was in a conscious and stable condition at this stage, the spokeswoman said.
This comes after a fashion designer reportedly lost three limbs in a tractor incident on a Queensland property on Thursday.
