Thank U

Doug, Rebecca, Guy and Philip

Today we had a visit from Rebecca Speight, Chief Executive of the Woodland Trust.

Myself, Philip, Guy (in his White Rose Forest role) met Rebecca and Doug Edmundson, Woodland Trust Woodland Creation Advisor (North Central).

We took a quick tour of Hemplow Wood and expressed our extreme gratitude to them for the support that the Woodland Trust has given us in recent years.

Apple blossom

A game of two teams today. Myself, Duncan and Harvey the dog, John, Ben and Solo the dog went back to Highwood to finish planting 75 Oaks, plus another 13 Oaks home grown by Stephen. Duncan was very proud of how the apple trees he planted here have done, and took fruit home.

Meanwhile..Philip, Geoff, Hap, Cath, ,Dave, Diane, Jess, Lesley and Robert, Stephen, Steve and Adrian went to Cop Hill Slaithwaite to plant 375 assorted trees. I believe they were assisted by Neil, Julie and Seth.

Cake was also Apple!

Geoff likes to pretend he is digging for Time Team.
