Commemorative trees programme (PDF 256KB)
Background
People want to plant trees as memorials or to commemorate major life events, such as:
- Weddings
- Engagements
- Holidays
- Birthdays
- Graduations
- Anniversaries
- New child-baptisms
- Memorials
- Special events
- Parents
- Friends
- Outstanding accomplishments
The purpose of the attached downloadable guidance is to provide information on the planting of commemorative trees as memorials and celebrations in and around the various Parks managed by Walsall Council.
There are many places where commemorative trees are welcome. Opportunities exist where tree planting is part of a landscape programme in parks and gardens or in the establishment of avenues, hedgerows and new woods. For a variety of reasons it may be less easy to accommodate tree planting in existing woods or other mature landscapes.
After you have downloaded the information please read through it thoroughly and if you need any further information then please contact the Urban Forestry Section on 0121 360 9464 who will be only too pleased to help you.
