Come and help us plant trees in our Community Woodland at Wembury Barton Farm.
This will form part of the Plymouth and South Devon Community Forest, a partnership between the National Trust, the Woodland Trust, Plymouth City Council and South Hams District Council, and is part of the wider Defra-funded Community Forest scheme.
You are welcome to come for the whole day, or just stay for an hour, its up to you. You will be rewarded for your help with a warm pasty and hot drinks!
What does a tree planting day look like?
On arrival at the tree planting site our ranger team will talk you through what you will be doing, so no experience is necessary. The aim is not to plant the most trees but to give them the best start so they can grow big and strong. Please feel free to take breaks as and when you need a pause. When you have had enough for the day please let the rangers know before you leave site. The minibus will be available to take you back to the meeting point.
