The Forest for Cornwall (Koos rag Kernow)

Submitted by via Cornwall Council on Thu, 01/10/2020 - 00:00.

Forest for Cornwall Programme

The Forest for Cornwall, conceived by Cornwall Council, is an ambitious tree planting project with the principle aim of fighting climate change.

When complete we hope it will cover approximately 8,000 hectares - that’s about 2% of Cornwall’s land area.

The Forest for Cornwall is not a single area of new forest.

It’s our ambition to significantly increase all forms of canopy cover throughout Cornwall, whilst strengthening the protection of our existing backbone of trees, woodlands and hedges.

The Forest for Cornwall is part of Cornwall Council's response to climate change and striving towards Cornwall becoming carbon neutral.

Do you have bare root trees that you are unable to plant this spring? Advice on how to look after your trees until the autumn planting season.
