We’re excited to announce that thousands more FREE trees will be available for residents from this weekend! 🌳

After last year’s incredible response, we’ve worked with The Woodland Trust to secure 4,000 trees up for grabs from this weekend, with 6,000 more expected soon after.

You can collect your free tree at Thornes Park Nursery, WF2 8QE, from THIS SUNDAY 8 FEBRUARY, between 10am-12pm. 🌱

Can’t make it this Sunday? Don’t panic, they will be available every Sunday until they have all gone.

Whether you missed out last time or want to add more greenery to your garden, now’s your chance!
Help us reforest the district and combat climate change. 💚
