MOREwoods

We are now taking applications for delivery in 2020.

Think big with MOREwoods. Whether you want to plant a shelterbelt or harvest your own wood fuel, we’ll get our expert adviser to contact you and:

• Help you design your woodland and select the most appropriate species mix

• Assign a dedicated project officer who’ll help guide your application from start to finish.

If you plant the trees yourself, we’ll contribute up to 75% of the costs. If you would like a contractor to plant the trees and provide a weeding service for the first two years we’ll contribute 60% of the costs.

The contract option is available in England, Northern Ireland and Wales, to anyone planting over one hectare. Our advice and support is available with no obligation if you decide not to plant.

Remember, if you require the trees quicker, packs can be purchased from the Woodland Trust shop.

MOREwoods in the Northern Forest area 

If you plant the trees yourself we will contribute up to 85% of the cost. If using a contractor we will contribute up to 70%.
