Thousands of Trees to Transform Derbyshire Countryside: 17 New Sites
They will plant over 47,000 trees by March’s end. This marks the start of Derbyshire’s Heartwood Forest. Council member Carolyn Renwick calls it a great opportunity, where landowners can improve nature and fight climate change.
The project wants places to be more appealing. It will boost nature for farms, towns, and businesses. City folks will get closer to green spaces, too. They will plant trees across 43 hectares of land.
The sites include a business park and a canal wharf. It spans seventeen different locations. Landowners get all planting costs covered and they also get help with care for fifteen years. The council wants more land for planting next season.
They hope to secure 130 hectares of land soon. The council urges landowners to reach out. Even small plots can help. Renwick spoke at a planting site near Grassmoor Park and stated they have set ambitious targets for planting.
They need landowners to step forward as even tiny pieces of land can help. Private owners, farmers, and communities are welcome because they offer great support for planting trees. Therefore, people can improve their land with this project.
Businesses can become greener with it, and communities can enhance their green spaces. It’s a great way to combat climate change.
