6th April 2025 Moses Gate Tree Planting
Our first task of April and we’re back at Moses Gate Country Park planting trees. We’ve planted nearby areas on Halloween 2022 and Easter 2023 and today’s session extends the planted area and also replaces some of the previously planted trees that have failed.
There’s no mystery to planting trees: you dig a hole, put the tree in it, put in a small stake for support and a tree shelter to stop deer and shrews nibbling it to death. Trees are planted a few feet apart and then grow as nature intended. There’s a bit more about tree planting on a previous post which you can read on this link.
Thanks to Tom and Caroline for organising (thank you for your leadership, as they say) and every one else who turned up.
