About the event

 Can you tell a hazel from a beech? Or an ash tree from a rowan? You should be able to after this session!

Station Road park is new, and being managed by East Devon District Council. It is not yet open to the public so this event is a chance for an exclusive preview!

Trees are hugely valuable, providing habitats for wildlife and being significant players in nutrient cycling, including the carbon cycle. Yet we don't know enough about our magnificent trees - where are they, what type are they? On this walk we will also be talking about how you can help us by recording the trees which you admire using our recording platform Treescapes (devontreescapes.com). Why not take a look - you may wish to record some trees right now!

This session is part of the spring/summer events series by Saving Devon's Treescapes, a project led by Devon Wildlife Trust on behalf of the Devon Ash Dieback Resilience Forum, and funded by the National Lottery Heritage Fund, One Tree Planted and other funders.

Please note: due to there being no parking at the site, we will shuttle you from Cranbrook station to the site, please ensure you can be a little flexible with your timings on the day.
