Thank you šĀ @stinkfilmsĀ for finding the lionās share of 1300 hedge trees š±š³ that were planted at theĀ @geranium_trustĀ Trust HQ in Yeovil.Ā
The Geranium Trust is a charity that provides a safe haven for anyone experiencing bereavement, isolation, loneliness or abuse in Yeovil. It is a 26 acre site set in the middle of the town, owned by the wonderful Paul Peters who has committed to turning the land into a thriving natural environment. Paul and his team welcome people who need to access a bit of peace & friendship by hosting lunches, tea parties, social groups, and importantly, gardening clubs š«š°ššø
Hedgerows š± are milk and honey for insects š butterflies š¦ birds š¦ and useful corridors for critters š¦ š¦” š¦ but they are dwindling. Since the Second World War Britain has lost 50% of itās hedges, and of those that remain 60% are poorly managed by being cut too often and too severely. Planting more feels good š±šøšĀ
The project was overseen byĀ @carbonawareĀ fantastic partnersĀ @reimaginingthelevels, a team of mostly volunteers who are getting vast numbers of trees planted in Somerset.Ā
@stinkfilmsĀ š„ and all otherĀ @carbonawareĀ funders - you are superstars šøšā„ļøšøšā„ļø
