Mission accomplished! 3996 bare-rooted trees (and shrubs) all planted – about 7 acres of new native broadleaved woodland created. Thank you thank you everybody who joined me to plant trees over the last three months, and everybody else who was enthusiastic about it (I fed off your enthusiasm).
The weather was amazing, more time spent in tee-shirts than waterproofs. Now let’s have some rain – the trees will enjoy it!
Here are some photos from three months of tree planting.
