This event is organised by Wildlife Groundswell.
They are asking: would you like to see Wildlife Groundswell actively promoting tree and hedgerow projects? And if yes, then more importantly: would you like to participate in tree projects?
Tree projects might involve town or village communities, schools, individuals; private land or community areas, parks, green spaces, road verges, hedges, existing neglected woodland, education, outreach, community tree nurseries, urban areas, with many ways to mix and match these as the opportunity arises.
Successful projects tend to be less about the trees and more about people. Planting trees is the easy part. Essential for every project are people and their ideas, vision, enthusiasm, local knowledge and contacts. For success the project will need organisers, networkers and fundraisers – as well as people to plant and maintain the trees.
If you are interested, then please bring your ideas, talents and enthusiasm to a brainstorming meeting at Rosuick Farm Wagon House on Thursday 9th January at 7.30pm
Please write to wildlifegroundswell@gmail.com in advance of the meeting to say you intend to come, or if you would like to be involved but cannot attend the meeting, please write to say so.
