Great to share the stage with David Johnson (Barcham Tree Nurseries) at the two-day Tree Care Forum to talk about young trees, planting and aftercare. Our stance (F4T) on the lack of revenue funding for the aftercare of newly planted trees was made clear and we look forward to the roll-out of our upcoming research project: on this very subject. We will post research updates in due course plus news of an annual campaign to ensure that revenue budgets are made available to adequately fund aftercare programmes. We need to change the narrative from……. tree planting to ……..tree establishment.
