The University of Kent celebrates its 60th birthday in 2025, so most undergraduates starting this academic year will graduate in our Diamond Anniversary year!
To celebrate the anniversary and the class of 2025, we are planting an orchard of 300 fruit trees. Our hope is that students can help to develop the orchard and watch it grow with them over their time at university, and that by 2025 it is a fully complete and flourishing space, leaving a lasting legacy.
We need all hands on deck to help us plant the 300 trees and we are running two planting sessions on the 25th January to get them all in the ground!
Sign up to be part of this exciting project.
The planting site is on the Southern Slopes of the University of Kent Canterbury Campus and you can see a map below. - Follow Eliot path down the hill, turn right after the bomb crater and follow the path to the planting field. Google map ref: 51.292068, 1.068540
