Moor Trees is organising an event to bring together individuals interested in supporting the restoration of native woodland on Dartmoor. This annual event, which also includes the charity's AGM, will shine a light on the work of the charity, as well as guest speakers who will talk about inspiring and important work taking place on Dartmoor. The event will be hosted in the Green Room at Boringdon Park Golf Club in Plympton.
The day will start with the AGM where you will hear from our Chair of the Board of Trustees Jenny Isaac, and our Chief Executive Helen Aldis, about our achievements over the past 12–18 months. To include reflections on our programme of engaging events that have been taking place throughout 2025, to mark our 25th anniversary year.
Our guest speaker, Naomi Oakley from Challacombe Farm, will talk to us about the value of trees and ambitions of the Central Dartmoor Farmer Cluster, looking at ways in which farmers are integrating more trees and scrub into farmland and how this supports a future vision for increasing tree cover on Dartmoor.
Moor Trees’ Woodland Officer, Jess Duffy, will share recent priority mapping and plans to increase tree cover along Dartmoor's river valleys by creating riverside corridors and supporting natural regeneration of woodland.
The event will conclude with an afternoon of Seed Gathering at Plymbridge Woods as part of the charity's annual programme of woodland visits sponsored by the Woodland Trust.
The event is open to anyone involved with or interested in the work of Moor Trees. Please note that only members of Moor Trees will be able to vote in the AGM, but all are welcome to attend this part of the programme.
We respectfully suggest a £10 donation for the attendance of this event, to support the charity's ongoing work towards our goal of restoring Dartmoor’s lost native woodlands and temperate rainforests. Please visit our website: DONATE - Moor Trees - How You Can Raise Money for Moor Trees
