Community planting day at Knightsridge Wood
Join us at Knightsridge Wood to plant new native trees and help create a thriving woodland for people and nature.
Knightsridge Wood, Livingston
Grab a spade and come along to Knightsridge Wood to help us replant this urban green space with a variety of native broadleaf trees.
No experience is necessary and our friendly team will provide you with a demo and the appropriate tools. Drop in anytime between 10am and 2pm.
We manage over 50 blocks of woodland across West Lothian, including Knightsridge Wood in Livingston. Our vision is for a world where woods and trees thrive for people and nature.
This is a free event but booking in advance via Eventbrite is encouraged.
Please wear suitable clothing and footwear for planting outdoors. Good waterproofs, walking boots and warm layers are advised.
There are limited facilities and no toilets on site. The nearest toilets are located at Aldi (EH54 4FQ), roughly a mile way (a two-minute drive or 13-minute walk).
Under 18s must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.
