Big Tree Plant

Plant more trees!

The Big Tree Plant was a national project, launched in December 2010, to increase the number of trees planted in towns, cities and neighbourhoods throughout England. The scheme encouraged and supported people to establish, protect and enhance local green spaces.The target was to see 1 million trees planted.

Natural Enterprise helped over 3000 Islanders plant trees working in partnership with Spectrum Housing. But why stop there? We now want to continue what the Big Tree Plant started. By creating a tree nursery, we have been able to supply local community groups with native trees to improve their public spaces.

A variety of groups on the Island have already taken advantage of the offer, including schools, Parish Councils and residential care homes.

Any groups, schools or community organisations interested in participating in the planting should contact Graham Biss on 01983 296244 or email: graham.biss@naturalenterprise.co.uk
