WOODLAND CHARITY TO PLANT FIRST TREE AS ITS NEW EXMOUTH SITE TAKES SHAPE

On the dawn of the first trees being planted at the Woodland Trust’s new site – recently named Yonder Oak Wood thanks to a public vote – the charity has set out its plans to create a haven for wildlife.

Among these include the planting of 13,000 trees this winter, which will form part of a mosaic of woods, wood pasture, scrub, groves and glades.

The first oak tree will be planted at the site this week and will form part of the Queen’s Green Canopy – where people across the UK were inspired to plant a tree to mark the Queen’s Jubilee. Public plantings will follow in December.
