Some people say ‘the best things in life are free’. They may have a point.
After watching the excellent Autumn Watch on the BBC, I always considered the British Isles to be a green and pleasant land.
Turns out those even-more-broke than we are Europeans have got one over on us again. With average tree coverage of 44% compared to a sparse 12% in the UK.
That just cannot be right?
Golf Refugees would like to encourage individual members to plant a tree on their local golf course. Who is going to pay? I hear at least one person shout.
Well it seems the Woodland Trust have 1.6 million trees to give away.
What could be better than a beautiful tree for free? Happy planting.
