This morning, we attended the planting of an English Oak tree in remembrance of 80 years since the end of WWII in The Countess of Chester Country Park.
As part of the @merseyforest #Oaksat80 project, we were proud to donate the English Oak tree and a memorial plaque. 🌳
We're super excited that this winter the @nationaltrust & @CommForests are working in partnership to create around 519 hectares of new #woodlands & woody habitats across England, equivalent in size to more than 800 football pitches! 🌳🌱
