Mickle Trafford Greenspace is hosting a tree planting day during National Tree Week

Mickle Trafford Greenspace is hosting a tree planting event on Saturday, 30 November, during this year's National Tree Week, supported by The Mersey Forest.

Volunteers are welcome to come along and help plant a selection of trees in the field directly above the Methodist graveyard on School Lane in Mickle Trafford, Chester. The 'What3words' location for the field is: ///birthing.meanest.flows.

Parking is available in Hoole Tennis Club, located on School Lane. To find the planting site turn right out of the car park and walk along the lane. You'll find the graveyard on the opposite side of the road to the tennis club. To get to the planting field, walk into the graveyard and continue up on the left hand side. The field is immediately beyond the graveyard.

Volunteers are encouraged to arrive for 10am if possible. If this is not possible, then come along when you can, there are plenty of trees to plant!

Please bring a spade and gloves if you have them. There will be some spare if needed. Wellies or sturdy boots recommended.
