Tree Pits News

TREE PITS NEWS

Hi neighbours. You may have noticed that Garden Friends NW2 have been planting up the tree pits along Fordwych Road and starting into St Cuthberts for everyone to enjoy and brighten up our neighbourhood. 

This is entirely a volunteer initiative to ‘green-up and clean-up’ our community for all so we hope you will enjoy this small way to feel proud of our street.

There are almost 60 tree pits in our neighbourhood and that’s a lot! We need your help, please.

Here are some small ways that you could make a big difference:

• ·        Water the plants in a tree pit near you regularly.
• ·        Add to the basic plantings by transplanting from your own garden or spread some seeds or buy a small plant on sale from a garden centre and plunk it into a tree pit near you.
• ·        Add something else to personalise your tree pit. We’re planting up old shoes and boots and broken pottery shards and putting them in tree pits to make them more interesting.
• ·        Clear the tree pits of any litter or dumping that might be left there.

Thanks for caring about our neighbourhood and helping out in our ‘green-up and clean-up’ initiative by caring for our lovely trees and tree-pit gardens.
