Welcome to our Tiny Forest

Blythe Hill Fields Tiny Forest was planted on 18th April 2024, in partnership with the London Borough of Lewisham, Friends of Blythe Hill Fields, and with the support of Stillness Infant school, and Dalmain and Rathfern Primary schools. Over 30 local residents joined the planting, alongside a team from CBBC's Blue Peter which will be featuring the planting in a forthcoming programme.
