Help us plant British saplings in East Wales to provide a habitat for local wildlife and sequester carbon dioxide.
Help us plant in Newtown in East Wales.
Protect Earth is a reforestation charity that helps plant the right trees in the right place, when government grants fail to help land owners reforest. We work with local climate action groups and volunteers so we can all do this on a shoestring budget, and save the planet a little bit every week.
We are going to be planting 1,000 trees of the following species: Sessile Oak, Alder, Downy Birch, Hazel, Rowan, Holly, Blackthorn, and Hawthorn.
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
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, and of course reduce emissions!
