Community groups and schools are invited to apply for free tree planter packs for local green spaces, housing estates and playgrounds where they have permission from the landowner to plant trees.

The Conservation Volunteers (TCV) are pleased to be working with the Mayor of London to give away over 30,000 trees for London.

The tree planter packs contain a mixture of UK species, specially chosen to complement London’s native plant and animal life. Over the long term, these trees will create shade and shelter and help to cool our heating capital city.

There are three different packs to choose from, each containing 50 trees. They’re small, beautiful, and easy to plant, making them perfect for communal green space.  

If you’re new to planting, unsure which trees to choose or want advice on running a community planting event, TCV can help. You can email trees@tcv.org.uk with your questions.

The closing date for orders is 5 February 2023 but as this is an ongoing initiative and supply is dependent on availability, the sooner you apply the better.

Delivery will be made between 20-24 February 2023, before the tree planting season ends.
