Events
Watch this short video which gives you a taste of what our community tree planting events are like.
Our workshops involve communities in their local areas in intergenerational tree planting and community gardening, with outdoor exploration for children. Our workshop leaders highlight how trees and plants are the fundamental basis of all life, and crucial to maintaining a sustainable environment.
We invite all ages to participate, and envisage that our involvement of children and young people will help to inspire the next generation to address climate change with nature-based solutions.
We can design bespoke events for a variety of participants. Our workshop leaders can work with you to tailor the workshops to suit schools, colleges, community groups and businesses.
Values
Our values are
Environmentalism • Community • Engagement • Participation • Integration
We aim to cultivate a lasting legacy of environmental sustainability by engaging local communities in tree planting. We believe that participation in our workshops will contribute to social integration at a local level.

Our Facebook
Here at Birtley Woodland 10 years ago, we held our first tree planting, which launched Roots for the Future.
Since then we've branched out (phnarr) with community gardening and forest bathing.
This Saturday come celebrate Earth Day, our birthday and the bluebells by snapping up the last two tickets of our forest bathing afternoon.

It looks like it's going to be a bumper year for these joyful flowers.
In this session we will revel in the beauty of the carpets of blue, immersing ourselves in the peaceful, private woodland at Birtley house. It will be a deeply relaxing, restorative few hours carved out for your wellbeing.
