Plant a tree for Harlow
in Harlow
Tree target smashed! Over 5,100 trees have been planted in our town in just two months! This is all thanks to the efforts of residents, volunteers, groups, council staff and councillors. Back in July we pledged to plant 1,000 trees over the next year as part of a number of commitments to tackle climate change.
A total of 5,118 trees have been planted since the end of November with 4,203 trees planted as part of our Plant a Tree for Harlow scheme. A further 900 trees were planted by volunteers at Parndon Wood and Hospital and Risdens Woods and 15 trees in the Town Park. We plan to run more tree planting events later in the year.
