Help us plant at Upps Hall Farm in Essex. We are going to be planting 750 trees in Essex and we need your help. We are going to be planting 600 trees of the following species: Pendunculate Oak, Alder, Crab Apple, Wild Service Tree, Rowan, Hornbeam, Small-leaved Lime, Wild Cherry, Field Maple and Scot’s Pine.
We also have 100 shrubs to be planted of the following species: Hawthorn, Hazel, Guelder Rose and Spindle.
Things we ask that you bring if possible:
A spade - a small border spade or a fencing spade / drainage shovel (which have a narrow/pointed blade) are ideal for tree planting. A large spade is ok, too.
Gardening gloves - the sturdier the better
Sturdy footwear - preferably boots or wellies
Plenty of food and water
Hand sanitiser
Bathroom facilities will be provided.
We'll send out more information closer to the time about how and where parking works, but we always appreciate anyone who can uses trains/bikes/etc to ease parking on the farm, and of course reduce emissions!
