    Let's participate, let's get your kids schools, churches , scout groups and local action groups to plant an Elm tree in their favourite green spot.

    This should help in bringing back the beautiful Elm tree and also help to better understand , why the Dutch Elm Disease wiped thousands of Elms, but some resisted .

    These saplings are taken from the trees that resisted the disease and by planting these and sharing the experience with the conservation foundation , you will help the restoration effort.


    This is possibly the most important Tree experiment in Great Britain today!

    Please spread the word and share the experience .

    Thank you

    hello Woody,
    Awesome reminder. I think they're carrying out this survey here at present. I'll double check with the Countryside Trust & Greenlink.
    Regards
    David

    Cheers for the info.

    Isn't it nice when someone says "that's a great piece of kit, where did you buy that", then you can modestly reply "you can't buy it, I made it myself". The moral is, it's amazing what you can achieve if you put your mind to it.
