About the day

This is a hands-on day for all ages where you will be guided to plant young trees to extend the existing Children’s Forest and to tend some of the trees we have planted in previous years. Full instruction and all materials and tools will be provided.

No experience is needed – just a willingness to get muddy fingers, be outdoors, and be part of something fun that supports nature and builds connection for humans and animals alike. Bring a packed lunch and something to drink.

Who is this day suitable for?

  • This day is suitable for adults and accompanies children, outdoor educators, Children’s Forest guardians and anyone interested in tree planting and developing a deeper connection to the land.

Greet the Trees; Autumn term offering (for community)

£10 drop-in per adult

During this term we will meet a new native tree each week, close to the tree nursery. We will learn the song of the tree together and gather in gratitude for the fruits and seeds. We will process the tree seeds to prepare them for their winter sleep and enjoy together a story and tea around the fire.
