If you are nothing like me, you are keen to travel at your expense to plant a tree for someone else, then go home and never see the blooming tree again
The reason for this is naturally your noble character and love for the Cornish countryside, dear Reader, but who could say no to a fun Winter trip to Penrose, the area around Loe Pool, Cornwall’s largest lake?
Me, obviously, but I am not the topic here, this is about those poor young trees who are only looking for a better life.
There will be National Trust Tree Planting Events at Penrose running from November 26th to January 19th.
Places are free, but booking is essential; black tie dress code optional.
Honestly, I have no idea what they would do if you showed up unannounced in a tuxedo or suitable length dress for the occasion.
It might be awkward at first, but I reckon a charmer like you could probably blag it. It’s not as if the National Trust Officer is going to set the dogs on you for caring about trees and looking good at the same time.
Those familiar with the National Trust’s events & activities know that there are a lot of walks, some running and cycling, a few caves and canoes, all hopefully with a café at the end.
But events like tree planting are less common, so don’t miss out!
