Community tree planting
March 16 @ 10:30 am - 1:00 pm
Cottingham Parish Council will soon take delivery of 315 free trees, that they applied for last year from the Woodland Trust.
The Friends of Green Spaces (FroGS) group of volunteers are holding a community planting event on the morning of Saturday 16th March and they’d like to invite villagers to join them to get the trees planted at the top end of the Dale.
Please come along with families, friends, refreshments and, if possible, a spade. The FroGS will guide and instruct as to what is to be planted where, and how, on the day. They’ll be installing fence posts beforehand and attaching wire fencing to the posts after the trees have been planted.
As well as wanting to get the trees in the ground as soon as possible, FroGS also want to ensure that the project is complete before the cattle come back into The Dale on 1st April.
We really hope that as many of you as can make it will turn up, plant some trees, have fun and, of course, take any resulting litter (human and canine) away afterwards.
Yours sincerely, Cottingham FroGS
