Welcome to our Tiny Forest
Nottingham's second Tiny Forest was planted on 20 November 2021 by local residents and volunteers. It is located in Southglade Park and was funded by DEFRA, in collaboration with Nottingham City Council who provided the land. There is an outdoor classroom area that can be used by both schools and local residents.
