Moor Trees

We help to restore the balance between humankind and nature by planting new native broadleaf woodland on Dartmoor and South Devon, enabling people to re-engage with trees and natural environments. We grow local provenance trees in our community tree nurseries from locally collected seed. We also run research, education and training programmes with partner schools, colleges and universities. We build biodiversity by working with local people. We have won various national volunteering awards and run volunteer days throughout the week. Founded in 2000, our achievements include: • Over 100,000 trees planted across 100 ha of woodland • Creation of 96 woodlands and management of two tree nursery sites • Over 150,000 acorns collected, plus 80,000 seeds of other species, including Hazel, Alder, Birch, Rowan, Hawthorn, Crab Apple, and Guelder Rose • Over 1800 tree dedications from individuals • Over 150 volunteering days every year with an average 11 volunteers per day.
