During the winter months our Tree Team was busy planting new trees across the borough, including our wonderful hazel tree from the Tree of Trees in South Ockendon. 🌳 Just like last year, they have been working hard to keep the new trees watered during the warmer weather – do you remember the heatwaves and trying to keep cool in June and July – but would appreciate some help. If a new tree has been planted outside or nearby your home, can you spare some used washing up or bath water and help us

Our printable tree ID guides are a fantastic way to help children learn about trees!🌳 Use them to identify leaves, winter twigs, spring blossom and autumn fruits. They are also a hands-on way to connect children to our wonderful natural world. Download at http://www.woodlandtru.st/p1NBS | The Woodland Trust
