On 15th February we recieved approximately 420 trees from the Woodland Trust.The free community packs of trees have been offered to many different communities, neighbours and schools in accordance with Her Majesty the Queen Elizabeth's Diamond Jubilee celebrations.
Jubilee Woods are attempting to mark the special occasion by planting around 6 million trees in the UK and at the same time creating a significate and lasting transformation of public parks and community spaces.
We recieved 90 Ash, 75 Rowan, 60 Oak, 90 Birch and 105 Cherry trees. Plus 1 special Jubilee Oak tree that will be planted in the school garden. The trees arrived bare root, so we have potted the trees on, until we are able to plant them.
We are hoping that corporate groups from Guernsey will join the Island community to help plant the trees in different areas around the island.
