Volunteers spend hours planting trees in Wish Park


Sixteen new trees were planted in Wish Park last weekend, with the help of a digger and some elbow grease.

Volunteers spent eight hours digging and planting on Saturday, with most of the saplings placed around the playground.

Two of the trees were sponsored by local youth football team Poets Corner Juniors.

Six more trees are looking for sponsors.

    Always good to have more trees to provide shade and habitat for wild life. However these 16 trees will have minimal effect on carbon dioxide levels as each, when mature, will only absorb about 20kg per annum and the average resident generates 10,000 kg each year.

    If you want to offset your carbon footprint and plant trees perhaps consider subscribing to https://ecologi.com/
