The Queen’s Green Canopy (QGC) is a tree-planting initiative created to mark Her Majesty’s Platinum Jubilee in 2022. The QGC will encourage the planting of trees to create a legacy in honour of the Queen’s leadership of the nation, which will benefit future generations.
As part of the QGC, the Council has a total of 70 trees of British indigenous species such as Oak, Beech, Birch, and Hawthorne to plant on our estates.
Garden Champions are invited to come forward and nominate their estate for the planting. Plaques will be made for each tree to state it was planted by residents as part of the QGC and Platinum Jubilee celebrations. Tree planting will begin in October 2022 and continue through to the end of the Jubilee year.
Closing date for entries is 31 August 2022.
Those nominating will be invited to attend the planting day for tree(s) planted and we'll post the best photos on our Instagram channel.
