Give it some welly for woodland! Tree planting to raise money for The Woodland Trust!

26th March
11am to 2pm

We have been given some wonderful trees from The Woodland Trust, and we wanted to make it a special day that these trees could be planted in the woods. We also wanted to do something for the Woodland Trust in return and since it is their Give it some welly for woodland day on 5 March, we thought we could do something in conjunction with this day, albeit a little later on in the month. The reason we have to do it later is that the trees are not being delivered until next week.

We will be planting the following trees:
10 Birch
10 Cherry
10 Rowan
8 Hawthorn
2 Hazel
2 Elders
6 Holly
2 Dogrose
10 Dogwood
Do bring a packed lunch and we will provide refreshements such as tea and coffee and cake, for a donation. All proceeds will go to the Woodland Trust.

The Woodland Trust give this indication of where your money goes and what it can achieve:
£10 will buy 4 trees
£33 will protect half an acre of existing woodland
£50 will provide packs of trees for schools

Please come along and help us to plant these trees and donate whatever you can afford back to the Woodland Trust.

You may also like to bring old wellies so we can make a well tree or perhaps you would like to get people to sponsor you wearing their wellies for the day! The Woodland Trust Website has lots of great ideas about all the things you can do!
