Description
Martin Moore Woods
Will you help us save these trees?
More Trees Now saves underprivileged seedlings for a second chance. Each tree produces hundreds of seedlings every year. Most of these do not survive. By scooping these out together and giving them away for free to citizens, farmers, food forests and outdoorsy people who want to plant, we can make the UK greener faster and more fun! Since 2020 More Trees Now have transplanted more than a million trees in the Netherlands and we want to replicate the scheme in the UK, will you join us?
On a harvest day we cut out the underprivileged trees These are disadvantaged because, for example, they are in the mowing path. An educational, fun day in nature. You learn to look at nature differently; nature gives us in abundance and you get to know all kinds of different types of trees in winter mode.
