Tree Planting Projects

Our planting events take place during the winter, as this is the best time to plant trees, when they are dormant.

Since the winter of 2006/07, our first planting season, Birmingham Trees for Life has planted over 15,000 trees in parks and open spaces right across the city. Click here for a map of last winter's plantings .

You can read our most recent Annual Review here.

Next Individual Sponsors Planting Event

Our next planting event for individual and family sponsors will take place next winter - probably in March 2013.  The location has not yet been agreed.  If you would like to sponsor a tree in commemoration of a special family event, just download the sponsorship form and send it to us with your payment.  We'd be delighted if you would like to join us!

New planting projects winter 2011/2012

We spent lots of time last Summer looking at parks and open spaces across the city to see where tree planting was needed.  New trees can be planted to replace those lost to disease or old age, to create new natural habitats, create shade near seats or playgrounds, extend existing woodland, or line new cycleways - just some examples of how we can use trees in an urban setting.

The 2011/12 planting season has now finished and you can have a look at our Blog to find out when and where planting took place, as well as to see brief reports on the events.
