The Carbon Community will be hosting a Tree Planting Day on Saturday 29th March at our site near Llandovery, Wales. Join us for trees, fresh air and fun!
Glandwr Forest is a new native broadleaf forest and is home to The Carbon Community’s landmark carbon study which aims to accelerate and enhance the sequestration of carbon dioxide (CO2) in trees and soil to tackle the climate crisis. This unique field trial combines forest microbiome inoculation and enhanced rock weathering.
We will finalise the activities closer to the time which are likely to include:
- 🌳 Planting trees and learning our nature-based techniques including basalt addition and soil inoculation to give the trees a strong start in their new home
- 🌳 Protecting areas of natural tree regeneration with tree shelters
- 🌳 Tree shelter removal
Our activities are suitable for ages 16+, people under 18 must bring a responsible adult.
All activities are on rough terrain.
