    Twickenham Rough - Hedge Planting

    With Richmond Weekday Projects

    At Twickenham Rough

    Activity description

    We will be planting tree whips to create a new hedgerow in Twickenham Rough. Hedgerows are valuable habitats as they provide a dense and varied scrub for animals to nest and feed within. Hedgerows also provide a long, continuous, green corridor to aid the movement of species across greenspaces. This project was made possible with the support of a grant from The Tree Council and Network Rail’s Community Tree Planting Fund received by Richmond Council.
