Dedicate a Grove
Our Groves
Contribute to the National Forest by planting a complete woodland grove with us. Groves are groups of trees separate from the main woodland, designed to create an open woodland landscape. Our Groves vary in size, allowing for between 150 and 500 trees, and can be chosen from two locations; Eastern Old Parks and Nanpantan.
Leaving a Legacy
Dedicating a grove in your name or in the name of a loved one will mean you are helping to secure a long term future for the Forest for everyone. Helping to make a landscape rich in wildlife, and providing new footpaths and woodlands to explore and enjoy. Your grove is a positive contribution to the environment.
Recognising your Grove
Should you wish to, you can choose to place a discrete brass plaque with your dedication on site. Options for different plaque content are available. You and your family will also have the opportunity to meet our foresters and plant the last trees to complete the grove.
Permanency of your dedication
All of our woodlands are planted with sustainability in mind, ensuring that we are creating a Forest that can be enjoyed for many years to come. We ensure that we plant mixed species woodlands; tailoring species to the soil types, topography and landscape surrounding each site.
Recommendations
I am proud to be naming a grove in memory of my father and my family. I was born in Coalville and remember the area as a coalfield – so different to the green landscape I see now when I am walking the National Forest Way.
