Planting on other days

I am not available to plant trees on Schools Tree Day or National Tree Day. Can I plant on another day?

Yes. We know that these two dates may not be an ideal time to plant trees in your area. Also the additional dates can be used for follow-up maintenance activities at planting sites, such as weeding and watering. If conditions are not suitable for planting due to drought etc, there are many other activities you can do under the banner of Tree Day.

That is why we are happy to offer you, your group, town or region, the option of (Your Town) Tree Day or (Your Region) Tree Day.

Schools Planting on Other Days

Schools should already have insurance cover for a range of activities and so can plant on any day that suits, so long as the activiity is part of the curriculum and covered by the school's own insurance. Further details can be found on our Insurance pages.
