Woodland Nursery for Native Trees
Donation protected
Woodland conservation & education are at the heart of The Deer Wood Trust.
https://www.facebook.com/thedeerwoodtrust/
We have been harvesting nuts & seeds and propogating native trees from local genome species at the wood for the past 4 years.
These trees will be used in both re-stocking & regenerating the woodland here but also to work with other tree planting organisations to help spread these healthy disease free (provenance) trees across the country.
It was fortunate that there was a mast year in 2012, enabling us to collect 4500 nuts from this wood. We have reached a crucial step in the amount of trees we are growing and need to expand the current nursery space.
Your donations will enable us to protect the tree seedlings from squirrels & mice, and the young trees from deer & rabbits.
Right now 200m of deer proof fencing & 2 more protected propogation tables are required to continue this vital work & house the most recently collected seeds.
If you can help us to raise these funds as soon as possible please, because the latest batch of young trees & seedlings are being propagated and planted-on this spring. The nursery needs to expand to allow this, which is why we are seeking your help so that the infrastructure work can be complete before the growing season begins!
The official launch of The Deer Wood Trust as a not for profit registered Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) is happening this spring & we welcome people to come and be a part of an ever growing woodland culture by either donation or through a more hands on approach with our volenteer days.
