Eden Community Tree Nursery

Thanks to National Lottery Players and Eden District Council, in October 2022 Eden Rivers Trust took control of a plot of land on an allotment in Penrith. The dream? To create a community tree nursery that would open a doorway to conservation; a place accessible to all, where local people, volunteers and community groups could learn about trees and the river and work together; growing and nurturing locally-sourced seeds. https://edenriverstrust.org.uk/projects/community/access-to-eden-breaking-barriers-building-bridges/community-tree-nursery/
