This will be the third and final tree planting session in recent weeks at St Gregory’s land will conclude a total of almost 3000 trees planted in the October 2024/March 2025 tree planting season, which builds on the 16,000 we have planted over the last three years in Maghull.

Many Thanks,

Friends of Maghull & District (FOMD) in partnership with Mersey Forest

At St Gregory’s the planting as created a wildlife friendly, pollution reducing 150m hawthorn hedge (950 trees) and woodland (420 trees) comprising of Common Oak, Green Beach, Birch, Alder, Hornbeam, Rowan, Field Maple, Hazel. It will importantly provide a great eco-educational opportunity for all the children and community volunteers, whilst providing a wonderful environmental legacy for future generations.

Sadly, Maghull has lost approximately 500 mature trees due to Ash dieback and Dutch Elm disease, whilst many green spaces are being lost for housebuilding, consequently your help will make a massive difference.

Huge thanks,

FOMD
