The city council once again is offering free trees to Gloucester residents.

In order to manage requests, please contact me to let me know if you would like any trees, and how many, up to a maximum of three per household.

You can choose between:

For medium size larger gardens:

Silver birch 

Wild cherry

For smaller gardens:

Rowan

Field maple

Please make your requests to me by Monday 14th December. Nb this is slightly earlier than initially stated. I will then pass your requests on to the council who will be in touch about how to collect your trees, or possibly how they will deliver them.

In the new year we will also be looking to plant some trees in parts of Podsmead, as part of the drive for more trees in the city. See my earlier story for more details.
