More Trees BANES is a registered charity that works hard to grow, plant and care for trees in our local area. Set up in 2008, we’ve planted over 16,000 trees so far.

Since 2020, we’ve been focusing on growing our own trees with local provenance. We now have 17 Community Tree Nurseries including 6 in schools where we work with pupils. We are also setting up a new central nursery "hub" in Twerton, Bath, where we sort, process and sow seeds. The seedlings then get distributed to our community nurseries for a year or two before being used in planting projects. Our planting projects are mostly in urban areas where they will have the most benefit for the people that live work and play close by.
