You may have read recently in the Courier of much tree planting going on at Elston, near Copplestone; also at Tedburn. Several members of Sustainable Crediton helped in a personal capacity, and in all over 50 people volunteered over the course of the week or so that the planting took place. In total, over 5,000 trees were planted.

The planting season is more or less over for this winter. However now we know of so many people who are happy to be involved, it would be great to identify some sites for next winter where we could carry out further planting. So do you have some land you would like planting up? Or do you know a landowner who would be interested? Do get in touch if so.
