The Kent Free Trees Scheme offers up to 25 trees
completely free of charge to individuals and organisations from
West and Mid Kent, and Canterbury and Thanet.
All of our trees are species native to the county. All you need
to do is pick up the trees, plant them yourself and care for them
as they grow.
Why are you giving trees away for free?
Trees make a vital contribution to Kent's natural environment.
By encouraging the planting of native trees there is a positive
effect on the landscape and biodiversity of Kent's countryside.
What are the trees like?
The trees we supply are very young, and typically no more than
one metre in height. They are supplied as bare-rooted 'whips', and
will easily fit into the boot of a car. Just take the following
five easy steps to apply for your free trees, and make your own
positive contribution to Kent's natural environment.
Make sure your application reaches us by 31 October 2008 to be
included in the current year's scheme.
