TREE PLANTERS

Tuesday, May 4, 2021

Pre-school-aged children at Oakwood House Forest School in Edgerton, Huddersfield have planted 16 trees in a bid to encourage more wildlife to the area.

The children planted a range of trees native to Britain including oak, beech, alder and birch in the garden of the former Edgerton Villa, which is situated within an area of conservation. They replace four old trees, some of which were planted more than 100 years ago, that had to be felled for safety reasons.

The setting is one of four operated by the Portland Nurseries group.
