Tiny Forest - Eco Warriors

Today, some of our Eco Warriors got the opportunity to work as part of a country wide scheme to create green spaces within urban areas.

The scheme is run by Earth Watch Europe, and the Delph site in Liscard is one of many sites across the UK being developed into a tiny forest.

A tiny forest is a dense fast-growing native woodland of approximately 600 trees in a tennis court sized area.

Tiny forests bring all the benefits of a normal forest – reconnecting people with nature, helping to mitigate the impacts of climate change, as well as providing nature-rich habitat patches to support urban wildlife – right into the heart of our cities and urban spaces.

We had great fun supporting the biologists and helping to plant trees. We can't wait to see how much they have grown by summer and discover what wildlife they will support.
