Propagating and planting tree seeds for woodland creation projects Ref E5
Tuesday 26 October Location: Cranfield, Bedfordshire
Facilitator: Colin Carpenter, Community Tree Trust *
Based at a recently established woodland created using seed from an ancient woodland SSSI, this day provides an opportunity to learn from the experiences of the Community Tree Trust, a successful community initiative. The benefits of seed collection and planting over natural regeneration and direct seeding will be considered and a nursery visit will provide hands-on experience of propagation techniques including seed collection, cleaning and processing, planting out and introducing ground flora.
