Plant and establish trees and woods 

Planting and establishing the right trees in the right place, alongside other crucial habitats, brings many benefits; enriching people’s lives and livelihoods, helping nature flourish, increasing climate resilience, and rekindling hope.  

There are so many great reasons to establish trees. To support support resilient and sustainable food production, enhance soil fertility and nutrient cycles, provide timber and wood products.

The woodlands and trees that we plant help to link up habitats for wildlife, capture and store carbon, reduce urban heat stress, improve water quality and reduce flooding.

Trees in our neighbourhoods bring communities together, create spaces for play and learning, improve air quality, make places look attractive, connect us with our culture and heritage, and most importantly provide hope for future generations.

We can provide free advice and funding to help you to plant and establish trees and woods, alongside other crucial habitats.  

Our advice is tailored to whether you are the landowner, farmer, a community group, or a local school. We can also support a wide range of projects – from small to large scale, urban to rural, natural regeneration to planting, and including hedgerows, trees, woods and other habitats.

Our local woodland advisors can support you through the application, planning, funding and planting stage and provide advice about ongoing maintenance.
