Trees Looking for Homes
The parish has acquired some trees (from the County Council), and would like to hear from anyone who has space to plant one or two, or more.
The species are: Green Beech; Horse Chestnut; Black Alder; small-leaved Lime; Spindle; Silver Birch; Rowan.
At the time of writing, there is at least one of each available. Please apply quickly.
These young trees are about six feet tall, with root balls, so quite substantial – and they need putting in the ground as soon as possible, as it’s the end of the planting season.
If you are interested, please contact Peter Raby on 01223-811264. Email: phr21@cam.ac.uk
