#Community partnership to plant trees across #Baildon and grow the #NorthernForest #Everytreecounts #Bigclimatefightback

[BaildonTreePartnership @BaildonTree]

New year update: unfortunately our plans to plant next to the river in #Baildon have been delayed due to new #lockdown measures, but we are eternal optimists and hope things will improve soon to allow essential #climateaction. We'll keep you posted 🌳🌿

Really lovely #tree #resource that might help with outdoor #homeschooling on these wintery days 🌿🌳

So, #NationalTreeWeek has just finished, but this is so fascinating, we are sharing anyway!

[The Tree Council @TheTreeCouncil]

Its phoenix tree Friday! 🌳

This #NationalTreeWeek, our tree expert Jon Stokes is sharing some of the hidden natural gems you can find in winter woodlands.

🎥 Today's video: how some trees can cheat death and transform into phoenix trees.

Planting season has begun post #lockdown. This morning at @BaildonGolfClub we planted 30 saplings on the green next to the car park. And the sun came out to help us celebrate #NationalTreeWeek 🌿

@BaildonTree completely endorse this

Great to speak to All Party Parliamentary Group for Biodiversity today with @TonyJuniper & @KeasdenKate. Today’s #GreenIndustrialRevolution must incl big nature based solutions eg #NorthernForest = levelling up agenda & tackle nature & climate crisis. @WoodlandTrust @ab4scambs

@BaildonTree is one year old on Twitter! We've achieved a lot in a year and have fantastic plans for the year ahead, despite the pandemic. Great thanks to @BaildonRunners for their recent donation and all our partners. Keeping fingers crossed for riverside planting in January🤞🌳

When the leaves fall, just leave them be. Leaves are designed to enrich the ground WHEREVER they fall. Even on lawns! #LeaveTheLeaves

[Plastic Pollution @AkerWood100]

This Autumn, this Fall #LeaveTheLeaves. If you really must have a tidy garden they can be raked into garden beds and flower beds or as a mulch around the tree. Or left as a pile in a corner of the garden to overwinter. Put your feet up guys.

Really brilliant resource if you want to have a go at growing trees from seed #SeedGatheringSeason 👏🌿

Here's a snippet from our Good Seed Guide on how to harvest, store and grow the seeds of this iconic tree this #SeedGatheringSeason!

Great news! The pathway to run alongside our next phase of riverside planting in #Baildon has been given the financial nod. This means more people will have good access to the #benefitsoftrees. Update to follow when we have dates 👏👏🌳🌿

[BaildonTreePartnership @BaildonTree]

We'll be following this thread carefully for tips - the more trees the merrier!

[The Tree Council @TheTreeCouncil]

Today is the start of Seed Gathering Season!

Each year we mark the first 30 days of Autumn for this campaign, as its the perfect time to gather local tree seeds ready to plant in the winter.

Watch this space for info, tips, and everything seed!

Another very satisfying morning rounding up tree guards to #repurpose during planting this coming winter. Always a good feeling to free a tree once the guard has served its use! 🌱🌳

[BaildonTreePartnership @BaildonTree]

Trees support our world in so many ways. Invite #wildlife into your garden with one of our sustainably produced bat or bird boxes. Each donation will go towards funding future planting projects. To order just message us. Delivery available too 🌳🦇🕊️

[BaildonTreePartnership @BaildonTree]

@thedeptofclouds This is a great idea for a tweet - let us put something together that might help - watch this space

[BaildonTreePartnership @BaildonTree]

Our #forests of the #future - aiming high in 2020 and beyond. Tiny #oaks in #peatfree compost. #WorldEnvironmentDay2020

[BaildonTreePartnership @BaildonTree]

@thedeptofclouds You're right. Most are in a very bad state for reuse and not tall enough to guard against deer. They do need removing though - a total eyesore

[BaildonTreePartnership @BaildonTree]

Salvaging tree tubes and stakes to reuse helps us be much more sustainable. All of these were collected from an existing plantation ready for us to use later in the year ♻ #treeplanting #climatechange #everytreecounts #reuse #recycle

[BaildonTreePartnership @BaildonTree]

Did you know that between November 2019 and March 2020 we planted 800 trees? 🎉Thanks to all our local partners and the #community we're making big strides towards tackling #ClimateChange in #Baildon.

Roll on this year's planting season 🌳🌳🌳

[BaildonTreePartnership @BaildonTree]

The Woodland Trust's Tree of the Year competition is back 🌳🌳
Do you have a favourite tree to nominate? It could be picked as their 2020 winner! 😊

[BaildonTreePartnership @BaildonTree]

Planning is underway to identify further potential planting sites in #Baildon - we're busy making contact and identifying #opportunities. We hope to confirm further sites in the next few months 🤞
Exciting times ahead 🌳🌳🌳

[BaildonTreePartnership @BaildonTree]

Oak, Hazel, Silver Birch and Horse Chestnut #saplings - all grown from local seeds, germinated this year 🌳

Even though they're small now, soon they'll be big enough to tackle #climatechange and increase tree coverage in the village 😊
