Rehoming Oak Saplings
https://www.gofundme.com/f/rehome-1000-oaks-from-maelor-forest-nurseries
Our hearts went out when we read an article in The Times, relating to thousands of two-year-old native Oak sapling being burnt by a tree nursey if not sold. When we clarified with Maelor Forest Nursery, we found that any unsold oaks were in fact going to be mulched. This felt disrespectful to the Oak, so to honour them we decided to crowdfund to rehome as many as possible.
Rehoming these native broadleaf Oak saplings within our community planting season 2020/21 is underway as oaks can live for over 1,000 years. As a native tree species which supports a wide variety of invertebrates, these saplings will positively affect the biodiversity.
If you are a community, group who are planning to plant this year and would like more information about receiving some of these Oak saplings please contact us.
