Go for a day out and plant your own tree

[movespot_co_uk]

Hi all
What do you think of a tree plan (this is quick in my head and might be a load of rubbish!)

Basically grab some funds, Maybe setup a donation tab

Use this to buy big field

Allow people to come and plant trees A great day out for kids (maybe keep a plaque infront of it)

can be done for a fee to help fund new areas or for free with the help of donations

what do you people think?

think we could all come up with a big UKBF plan!? something like that would surely reach the news

Tree idea is interesting but not sure if it will work. Buying a field doesn't come cheap. Council funding/donation may be possible but a long shot.

This idea is brilliant. Enough talent and brains on here to make a big go of things - massive group of share holders. Make a PLC. I'm in.

Great lets have some professionals join in and give advice

And it's important to plant the right tree. Is it native? Is it appropriate for the expected sogginess of the ground? To what height will it grow? How deep or shallow is its root system and could the roots disrupt any nearby structures?

So I agree. Consult a professional first.

Why not just buy a chunk of rain forest so it can't be chopped down?

you can buy it but it will still be chopped down unless you patrol it because thousands are made through illegal forestry there

Brilliant idea. I am very interested.
