COMMUNITY TREE NURSERY
The Sherwood Seedbank
Opened in October 2023, created and run by the Sherwood Forest Trust for the local community
The Sherwood Seedbank
The Sherwood Seedbank is a one-of-a-kind tree nursery, operating within the Sherwood area, right next to Sherwood Pines, and enables local tree and plant seeds to be collected and planted by the community and volunteers.
Growing Communities: The Sherwood Forest “Sherwood Seedbank”
Sherwood Forest – the local green environment – has been denuded and fragmented over centuries. The Sherwood Forest Trust has a mission to halt the decline by practical projects to restore woodland and heathland. Planting trees (especially long lived English oaks) supports biodiversity and helps mitigate against climate change. It also enhances the local environment in an area which in the past was much scarred by coal mining, now a ‘dead’ industry in North Nottinghamshire.
