There’s a good opportunity for you and your neighbours to collect a FREE tree for your garden and help set a new Guinness World Record. The nationwide challenge is to plant more than 600,000 trees within a single hour – so everyone’s help is welcome!
The world record attempt is called Tree O’Clock and it’s being organised by BBC Breathing Places to celebrate National Tree Week. This is how you can get involved…
STEP ONE: Saturday November 28th 2009
Visit us in the Arboretum between 10am and 2pm on Saturday November 28th to collect your free sapling and planting instructions. There will also be a tree carving demonstration, family activities, tree advice and a tree talk (booking for this is essential by calling 0115 915 2733).
STEP TWO: Saturday December 5th 2009
Plant the tree in your garden between 11am and 12 noon on Saturday December 5th. Don’t forget to take a photo of you planting your tree and email it to breathingplacestrees@bbc.co.uk by noon on Friday December 11th to make sure your tree is part of the record attempt!
