The Colne Valley Tree Society: Just another day

Saturday 15 October 2022

Just another day

Kayleigh, Julia, Jess, Dianne, and Tanya.

Just another day, nothing of note here, just a mass of women in hi-vis with chainsaws let loose on a golf course. No golfers were harmed.

We were; Dave, Kayleigh, Julia, Tanya, Philip, Jess, Dianne, Stephen, Hap, Baljit, and Paul. Plus Mick and his son with their trailer.

Back at the nursery myself, Geoff and Peter were receiving the logs, and splitting and stacking.

Legal disclaimer, only the qualified and insured were actually using chainsaws.

2024/25 Season

We are a registered charity and group of volunteers, who plant native species trees in and around the Colne Valley. Occasionally there will be remarks on facebook that suggest we are a threat to all that lovely moorland. We are flattered that some people think a dozen volunteers could cover the thousands of hectares of moorland with trees. In fact, we plant responsibly, and always with the permission and support of landowners. The Pennines are one of the most heavily regulated areas in the UK for tree planting, its a wonder we get anything done.
