Tree Planting in Fiddlers Green
Working in partnership with Cheltenham Borough Council, CPRE Gloucestershire and the Cotswolds & Vale Ash Dieback Forum, funds were raised from the Ash Fund, enabling 250 trees to be planted.
On Saturday 20th November 2021, Forum Members, local residents and friends came together to plant a variety of 180 trees, (Rowan, Holly, Oak, Cherry, Acer, Wild Pear, Hawthorn, Silver Birch, Hornbeam and Maple).
The value and overall benefit to residents in having trees, plants and green spaces can not be underestimated, and we welcome this happening in the Golden Valley Cyber Hub Development.
