Friends of Belmont Recreation Ground, Haringey Council, Funding Circle, WFH and the Forestry Commission are working with Earthwatch Europe to establish a new Tiny Forest in Haringey. A Tiny Forest is a dense, fast-growing, native woodland made up of 600 trees planted in a tennis court-sized plot. They are not only an attractive location for wildlife but are great for people to enjoy as well, and can provide a range of benefits in the fight against climate change.

Join us on Wednesday 27th of March where we will be planting the trees that will make up the Tiny Forest.

Location: Belmont Recreation ground, Boundary Rd, London N22 6AD​. Exact Location here (Coordinates: 51.591473349265584, -0.09642206498861787 |https://w3w.co/solved.veal.placed )
