Great fun in the sun at the Childminders’ Tree Planting morning

Great fun in the sun at the Childminders’ Tree Planting morning. Around 25 children came and enjoyed planting, but by far the biggest hit with the children was watering all the new trees afterwards! Even the chocolate tree shortbread couldn’t compete with the watering fun (apologies to any parents whose washing baskets are full of clothes covered in green icing and mud – all in a good cause!)

Thank you to Lucy Electric for specific support for our nature education strand, and as always to our brilliant business sponsors Lightfoots and BP Collins, and support from TTC and SODC for our projects. These trees were kindly donated by the Woodland Trust.

PS Dare we mention that it will soon be warm weather watering time again? If you would like to join our tree volunteers WhatsApp, or live near any of our hedge sites and can help independently with watering or can let us use your tap for refills, please drop us a message or email [email protected].
