Projects

Here's just a small sampling of the natural treasures we've helped preserve over the years.

Pendennis cottage

This planting project involved getting 1,064 trees/hedging plants into the ground. It was great to be planting with the UPS and International Tree Foundation’s volunteers. We really did need the extra hands as we planted a wide variety of species and extended the orchard along with creating a new hedgerow.

Midshires

We were delighted to plant trees in March in the Midshires in Northamptonshire. It was wonderful to help fill in some gaps in the landscape. We would like to thank Jonny and the team for helping us get 150 trees in the ground. Our projects are not just about the number of trees, they are about filling in gaps and increasing the bio-diversity for nature.

Leighton Bromswold

We enjoyed a great day with the community of Leighton Bromswold planting trees and hedging. It was great to have so many helpers as we had 760 plants to get in the ground across a variety of land. We extended a copse, planted a very boggy area to help with flooding, and created a new native hedgerow. It's so important near water as we help create b-lines for nature. 

Hinchingbrooke School

This was an amazing opportunity for the community and 20 students to come together along with some of our corporate partners. It was great to chat about all things trees and see how much of an impact was made in just an afternoon. We collectively planted 810 trees and hedging plants. The school backs on to Hinchingbrooke Country Park and has a selection of trees within the grounds. It was great to plant for future generations as they had lost some big old trees. We also planted a native hedgerow to make part of a new boundary for the school and to benefit the woodland just feet away.

Warners - falls farm

Being a B-corp, the team at Warners are hugely conscious of how important nature is to everything they do so we were delighted to have extended a woodland area on the farm. We planted an additional 60 trees with members of the team having a wonderful couple of hours in the great outdoors, enjoying nature.

Lodgewood lake

This was our biggest planting project to date with a whopping combination of 3,080 trees and hedging to extend a native hedgerow and add an additional 200 meters. It was great to have so many volunteers from Ricardo and Fresh Montgomery helping us, especially given the fact it was snowing the day before. The site offers many wonderful habitats given its proximity to the lakes and rivers so we are extending the network for wildlife to enjoy. The site also backed on to a disused landfill site so it is great to producing additional woodland next to this. 

saffron grange

It was wonderful to plant at Saffron Grange for the second year in a row and was great to add to our previous planting with another 385 trees in the ground. The vineyard is a wonderful place to explore nature and wine production. The space that has been created is increasing biodiversity for the area and the community around it. 

We were delighted to have the team HRC Hewittsons helping us plant the trees, thank you.

Hemingford Grey

We are delighted to be working with Naturepac and it’s really important to both them and us that we get the next generation involved in planting trees and hedging. This is why we jump at the chance to plant trees at Hemingford Grey school. It was a wonderful morning, supported by the community and, pupils and teachers. Thank you.

Pembrokeshire

It was really important that we plant trees on Rory’s doorstep, as the charity was set up in his memory. So we planted the first trees on the anniversary of his death.

We planted a selection of trees in the community garden at the preschool next door to the family home he built. It was a mix of 5 years old more established trees and oak grown by a friend of ours from an acorn.

Saffron Grange - Saffron Walden

We are delighted to be working with Saffron Grange, based just outside Saffron Walden on the Essex/ Cambridgshire border. We have been working with them to plant a copse and an avenue of trees on the site. To date, we have planted over 1,052 trees and hedging plants. We ar looking forward to more planting this autumn.
