Free Trees for Schools, Communities and Landowners

Northern Ireland Electricity Networks is fully funding The Conservation Volunteers (TCV) to offer free trees with advice and planting support to schools, communities and landowners across Northern Ireland.
Successful applicants for free trees will receive an advisory site visit from TCV to advise on the best tree mix for their site and number of trees required.
We are now taking applications for the 2026/2027 winter tree planting season, with trees being planted from November 2026 to March 2027.
If you are interested in help and support with planting trees, please complete the application form below.
