Want to grow a tree?

If the answer to this question is yes, you’re in the right place!

There are many reasons for growing a tree. Here at The Conservation Volunteers, we believe that trees:

  • Offer a wonderful habitat for a huge range of animals and plant species
  • Provide shade
  • Absorb rainfall & help stop soil erosion
  • Create cooler micro-climates
  • Grow food for us and other species
  • Give us fuel and timber
  • Improve air quality & reduce noise pollution
  • Make places more pleasant to live in
  • Help us have fun – from tree-climbing to apple bobbing!
