Leith Decides awards funding to Greener Leith to plant 1000 trees in Leith!
Greener Leith recently came up with a proposal for a Leith-wide initiative to encourage people to plant 1,000 new trees in Leith. Greener Leith know has the funding to provide the trees and local people, once we’ve completed a series of mapping exercise of North Edinburgh, will decide where to plant them.
We heard the good news at the beginning of March and there’s been already a really positive response on social media – Facebook post on the 1,00 trees award got nearly 2,000 views – with many suggestions of locations and even offers to help plant. We going to need volunteers to help decide where they are most needed and then plant them. To make this easier we are in the process of preparing an interactive map of North Edinburgh which will be available on the Greener Leith website in the next few weeks.
