Plant a tree in '23!
Members of the Green Team made a start on planting some of the trees that we have received from The Woodland Trust. They have been temporarily 'heeled in' in our vegetable patch, and we will be planting them over the next few weeks to boost our existing hedges as well as planting around our developing wildlife area.
We chose trees that will provide us with year-round colour. We will be able to enjoy beautiful blossoms, bright berries and stunning autumn displays whilst the local wildlife will gain additional shelter, nesting sites and food!
We have planted hawthorn, dogwood, wild cherry, silver birch, rowan and hazel and are looking forward to watching them grow.

If you would like to plant trees in your own garden, we will have trees available at the Christmas Fair for you to purchase. These have been grown on and nurtured over the last year. We will also have a small selection of vegetable and flower seeds that the Green team have collected, (as well as made the seed packets)for sale. All the money raised from this stall will go to help us purchase wild flower seed for our meadow area.
