We are keen to plant trees in suitable places around Winslow. In November 2022 we planted our first copse on the allotment field. Species include native rowan, hazel, oak, hawthorn and field maple.
We would also like to encourage people to grow on the tiny tree seedlings that we all have growing in our gardens.
If you know of anywhere else that might be suitable for planting trees or would like to pass on a small tree seedling please contact us at greenerwinslow@gmail.com
We have a small group, including two local ecologists, looking at green areas in Winslow and researching the history of the places and then recording the plants and animals that we find there. We hope to compile a series of green trails using this information and publish them on our website for everyone to use. They should make local walks more interesting in the future.
Furze Down School
We are fortunate to be working with Furze Down School to improve their extensive school grounds and to increase the biodiversity by planting more trees and flowers. The aim is also to enable the children to enjoy being outside and get the maximum educational benefit and wellbeing from their surroundings.
