Our Coast, Our Sea - Back by popular demand

23 November 2010

On Sunday 12 December, between 11am and 1pm, Northumberland Wildlife Trust will be offering members of the public the opportunity to select and cut down their own scots pine or lodgepole pine tree at its East Chevington Nature Reserve in return for a £15 donation.

Alex Lister, Estates Officer with the Trust and his team of volunteers will be available to help if you don’t want to chop the tree down yourself. You will need your own vehicle to transport the tree home.

Both scots and lodgepole pines emit a wonderful pine fragrance and have lovely long, thin blue/green needles that stay on the tree rather than drop like firs or spruces.

Please contact Laura Lowther at Northumberland Wildlife Trust
on: 0191 284 6884 to book your time slot. Last year’s tree event was so popular, the Trust ran out of allocated trees, so call now to avoid disappointment.

Seasonal refreshments will also be available on the day.
