Urban Trees
"Urban trees are known to improve air quality, biodiversity and mental health. Despite this, planting in towns and cities is lagging behind need as it is
often seen as expensive and hard to establish trees in these environments. We wanted to test if new ideas could be cost-effective and yield a high survival rate.
This pilot is led by Kent County Council."

        I need to ‘cleanse’ my feed, so here’s a pic of the Cascadia Maple my wife grew from seed. We’ve been shaping it for years and I’m pleased with the look of it. It stands in our deer-fenced garden.

        A leafy green Maple tree stands in a sunny garden, surrounded by various plants and gardening pots. In the background, there are hints of a fence and additional greenery. The sky is clear and blue.

                        A tree, probably a Monterey cypress, with a thick truck and large branches, mostly along one side of the trunk, giving the tree a windswept appearance. It's sitting in front of a split rail fence, with some houses in the distance. The sky is grey, giving the photo a moody look.

                                  ‘Doves and food and fun’: the fight to save a farming pioneer

                                  needs £1.2m to save its diverse organic crops and ‘micro’ enterprises including a bakery and honeybee hives

                                  "It’s almost a political project about land use – maximising the productivity of the land." - David Wolfe

                                  by Patrick Barkham
                                  Tue 30 Jun 2026 06.00 EDT

                                  "The aerial view of Wakelyns matches the experience of visiting it at ground level: in a region dominated by prairie fields of industrial agriculture, here lies a vivid green lung of land. Its sounds and sights in summer – the sleepy purr of the turtle dove, the vivid pink flash of a bullfinch – have vanished from most of the British countryside.

                                  "But Wakelyns is not a nature reserve – it is a thriving farm, a 'living laboratory' for and a hub for innovation and business. It is also under threat, and its owners must raise £1.2m to turn it into a charitable community benefit society.

                                  "The 56-acre former pig farm in Suffolk was bought by Martin and Ann Wolfe in 1992. Martin was a government plant pathologist who wanted to do more innovative research than his employers had allowed. Seeking to farm crops with fewer pesticides, herbicides and fertilisers, he created one of the first agroforestry schemes in Europe.

                                  "Turning productive cereal-growing fields into 56 narrow 'alleys' of farmed land between rows of planted trees had been 'widely regarded as mad', said their son, , an environmental lawyer who now runs Wakelyns with his wife, Amanda Illing. 'The farmer who sold the land to them said: ‘You’ve ruined a perfectly good wheat field’.'

                                  "Today, Wakelyns is an inspirational example of agroforestry, which has become official government policy. The government’s carbon delivery plan wants to turn 10% of arable land into agroforestry by 2050, with financial incentives to encourage more farmers to transition into something like Wakelyns.

                                  "The lush trees that divide the alleys are all crops. After more than 30 years, some are tall trees for timber, while others provide , and . The most lucrative tree crop is , which is coppiced on a seven-year cycle to produce high-quality hazel stakes for traditional hedgelayers. Each stake is sold for £1.40 and Wakelyns cannot grow enough.

                                  The farm’s motto is ''. It pioneered the first commercial growing in the UK, and is still the country’s only commercial grower. 'If Britain is serious about wanting to feed itself, we should stop growing oilseed rape for biodiesel and grow ,' said Wolfe.

                                  "Wakelyns’ diversity encompasses a uniquely genetically diverse population of wheat and multiple varieties of apple tree. When big orchards, which typically grow a narrow range of apple varieties, complain of a terrible harvest, a mixed orchard such as Wakelyns’ is fine, because every year some varieties thrive. farmers, says Wolfe, 'put it all on red or black'.

                                  "Wolfe and Illing took over the farm in 2020 after Wolfe’s parents died. To the innovative farming principles, they added 'enterprise stacking', bringing people back to the land via a series of symbiotic relationships."

                                    In Japan, valuable trees are relocated instead of cut down during development. Arborists use nemawashi, a technique combining horticultural knowledge and modern engineering, to prepare the trees for relocation.

                                                  How to Be a Tree: Notes on the Resilience of Letting Go

                                                  This essay and poem are part of the Universe in Verse book. Trees grant us some of the richest metaphors for our own lives — a polished lens on the quality of attention we pay the world. “The tree which moves some to tears of joy is in the eyes of others only a green thing which stands in the way,” wrote William Blake.

                                                  Parrotia tree bark comes off in plaques that curl up and fall off. The plaques are irregularly shaped, and come in all shades of brown: black-brown, red-brown, tan, honey, amber... It's like looking at a puzzle assembled on a tree

                                                  The bark on paper bark maple peels off in long, thin papery curling strips. The bark is mainly a deep honey color, with the strips turning amber, sometimes revealing more ashy colored bark underneath.

Ahead, tall pine trees stand in a cluster to the left, while on the right shrubs and a flowering white tree line the trail.

It sits behind a paved walking path and in front of a split-rail fence. You can see some houses in the far distance.
